In the first chapter, I discuss international opportunitiesthat favor the intensification of international negotiations. The second chapter discussesthe actors of international negotiations, indicating that with the evolution of internationalrelations, there expanded the circle of influential participants in negotiations. Thefundamental assumption of the third chapter is that with the evolution of internationalrelations, international negotiations have begun to provide a process consisting of severalstages with different dynamics rather than limit themselves to a traditional single meetingat the negotiating table.
