Professor Frans de Waal, one of the world’s foremost primatologists, explores what multilateral practitioners can learn from our closest relatives in the animal kingdom, including the chimpanzee and the bonobo, about negotiating, the nature of conflict and reconciliation.
Professor de Waal is Director of the Living Links Center & C. H. Candler Professor of Primate Behavior at Emory University's Department of Psychology. He has written many books, including Chimpanzee Politics, Peacemaking Among Primates, The Ape and the Sushi Master and Our Inner Ape.
This podcast is an edited recording of Professor de Waal’s presentation at a Disarmament Insight symposium on ‘Human Security, Human Nature and Trust-building in Negotiations’ held near Geneva on 25 May 2007.
