国际商务谈判International Business NegotiationA negotiation is a meeting or a series of meetings in which the parties need each other ' s agreement to reach a specific objective.The fundamental principles of negotiation1. Negotiation is an element of human behavior.2. Negotiation takes place only over issues that are negotiable.3. Negotiation takes place only between people who have the same interest.4. Negotiation takes place only when negotiators are interested not only in taking but also in giving.5. Negotiation takes place only when negotiating parties trust each other to some extent.Chapter 1 Negotiation motives and key terminology 谈判动机与关键词语Negotiation 谈判Conflicts 冲突Stakes利益Case study: Matsushita Electric Corporation 松下电器公司NEGOTIATION 谈判A successful negotiation must satisfy at least the following conditions:1. The outcome of negotiation is a result of mutual giving and taking. One sided concession or compromise can not be called a successful negotiation.2. Negotiations happen due to the existence of conflicts, however, no negotiations can proceed smoothly and come to a satisfactory solution without collaboration between the participants.3. Negotiation is a behavioral process, not a game; in a good negotiation, everybody winssomething. Success isn ' t winning everything; it ' s winning enough.CONFLICTS 冲突The definition of conflicts states three points:1. Parties in conflicts are interdependent, which means there remains a kind of relationship developed by interrelated interests and concerns. There would be no conflict if two parties were not interrelated and had nothing to do with each other.2. Con tradictio ns and in terests coexist. If there are on ly con tradictio ns and no shari ngof com mon in terests, n egotiati ons become groun dless and unn ecessary.3. Two parties in a conflict will naturally fight for each other ' s own interests and nevery effort to gain more from the other side, as a result it will reduce gain of interestsexpected in itially.STAKES利益Stakes are the value of ben efits that may be gained or lost, and costs that may bein curred or avoided. Four points n eed to be clarified:1. Negotiation parties will either gain the interests they expect to win from then egotiati on or lose what they hope to attai n, which in dicates that the talks are pert inent to releva nt parties ' own affairs and in terests. Only whe n a party has stakes conn ected with the issues to be talked, can it become actively engaged in the negotiation.2. Free lunch is not provided at the n egotiati on table, in ano ther word, to get what is desired, both parties have to pay for the gaining at either high cost or low cost depe nding on how well n egotiators man age the situati on.3. The n egotiators will have to decide how much of stakes can be gained and whether a particular gain is the one that a party desires for. They will also have to decide how much they may gain if they choose opti on A in stead of opti on B.4. Negotiators will have to compare and bala nee the relati on betwee n the curre nt in terests and long term in terests or un derly ing desires in order to make decisi on on satisfy ing long term interests at the cost of current interests.Effective negotiati ng (VCD)成功谈判Who s who in Effective NegotiationThe compa niesLevien SA , based in Brussels, Belgium.It is an intern ati onal compa ny which manu factures specialist paints and dyes.In its head office it has a small IT function which the company has decided to outsource.Okus IT, based in Swindon, in the South of En gla nd.They specialize in managing IT projects and taking over the IT departments of theirclie nt compa ni es.The n egotiati onOkus have sent a detailed writte n proposal to Levie n.The meet ing has bee n arran ged to n egotiate the terms of any agreeme nt.In particular the following two issues are likely to be sticking points:1. StaffingLevien would like to protect the jobs of their current IT team.They want Okus to employ the four members of the team, and are under pressure from the unions to make sure outsourcing contracts like this do not lead to redundancies.Okus, on the other hand, will not want totake on Levien ' s whole team.They already have project engineers based in Swindon.2. PricingOkus have proposed two levels of IT support: Level AA fixed monthly price which will cover all support work (daily maintenance and customer support) and specified project work (hardware and software upgrades, training. Etc.) Level BA lower monthly invoice based on just support work. Any additional project work will be logged and then added to the invoice the following month.1.

经贸知识英语串讲讲义第一课1)How would you define international trade?Answer: 第三页第一段第一句。
2)How did international trade first begin?Answer: The distribution of natural resources is uneven. That is the reason why international trade first began.3)What is the new incentive for trade that arose with the development of manufacturing and technology?Answer: 第三页第二段(international specialization)。
4)Explain the theory of absolute advantage and its application in international trade.Answer: If a country is more efficient, or spends less resources such as capital, land and labor than other countries in producing a commodity, we say this country has an absolute advantage in producing this commodity. The theory of absolute advantage implies that every country produces and exports commodities in which they have absolute advantage while importing commodities where other countries have absolute advantage. (参看第三页第四段到第四页第二段结束)5)Who introduced the theory of comparative advantage? Which theory makes more sense, absolute advantage or comparative advantage?Answer: The English economist David Ricardo did. The theory of comparative advantage makes more sense than that of absolute advantage.6)Explain briefly why trade to exploit comparative advantage promotes efficiency among countries.Answer: The theory of comparative advantage implies that every country, even when it has no absolute advantage at all, can specialize in the production and export of commodities where its absolute disadvantage is smaller or where it has comparative advantage. So long as comparative advantage exists, trade between countries is always possible, and in the process of exploiting comparative advantage, trade promotes efficiency among countries, since it can make one country better off without making another worse off.7)Is comparative advantage something static? Is it purely decided by the endowments of nature? Give examples to show the development of comparative advantage by certain countries. Answer: 第五页第三段全部。
第二课1)Are there other bases for trade when there are no differences among countries in production conditions? Mention some of the bases. Answer: Yes, there are. They are patterns of demand, economies of scale and innovation or style.2)What is economy of scale? What is the relation between economy of scale and trade? Answer: Trade will be developed between countries when economy of scale is practiced, that is, when different countries can specialize in production and export of different commodities and on a larger scale. And all countries can benefit. (参看第十五页第二段)3)What does the theory of international specialization seek to answer? Answer: 第十五页最后一段第一句。
4)Will complete specialization occur in reality? Why? Answer: Never. The reasons are the production of goods for strategic or domestic reasons by a country where it has no advantage, the transport cost that may reduce the benefit of trade, and the protectionist measures such as tariffs and quotas. (参看第十六页第二段)5)What is tariff barriers? What is a customs area and what is a customs union? Answer: Tariff barriers are the most common form of trade restriction, and a tariff is a tax levied on a commodity when it crosses the boundary of a customs area.A customs area usually refers to the area of a country. A customs area extending beyond national boundaries to include two or more independent nations is called a customs union. (参看第十六页第三段)6)What is most favoured nation treatment? Is it a very special treatment? Why? Answer: 第十六页最后一段倒数第四行到第十七页第一段结束。
7)What is the most common form of non-tariff barriers? Explain it in a few words. Answer: 第十七页第二段前6行。
8)What are the differences between visible trade and invisible trade? Give a few examples of invisible trade. Answer: Visible trade refers to the import and export of goods, while invisible trade refers to the exchange of services betweencountries. Transportation, insurance, tourism and immigrant remittance are examples of invisible trade.第三课1) Why is it difficult to effect payment in a straight forward manner in international trade? Answer: Because in international trade the buyer and the seller are located in different countries and they don’t know each other very well, therefore it’s no t so easy to effect payment in a straight forward manner as in domestic trade where the buyer and the seller are geographically close to each other and understand each other well.2) Mention some of the riskd the exporter and the importer may face in trade. Answer: 第二十九页第二、三段。
