explanatory power, neither offers a course of conflict amelioration. Theapproach presented in this workshop offers a dialectical synthesis of the twodominant schools, overcoming the common privileging of time -- that ethnicconflicts are either exclusively rooted in the past or in the present, andovercoming the common privileging of collective action -- that ethnicconflictsare either purely emotional responses or rational action. In order toachievethis Hegelian Aufhebung, it is necessary to synthesize two theoreticalapproaches: critical theory and psychoanalysis. This workshop offers athree-step method to deconstructing ethnic conflict, provides the requisitevocabulary to understand the interplay between critical theory andpsychoanalytictheory on a collective level, and introduces courses for conflictameliorationand resolution. Participants will be introduced to methods for initiatingdialogue between conflicting parties and evaluating the prospects forculturalhealing.Workshop participants registered in advance will be invited to submit workingpapers on nationalism and ethnic conflict which will be examined anddiscussedduring the workshop. Selected papers will then be compiled into an editedvolume.Workshop II:Meerman IA Psychodiagnostic Approach to Assessing PoliticalPersonality and Predicting Leadership PerformanceCoordinators: Aubrey Immelman, Saint Johns UniversityBlema Steinberg, McGill UniversityAfter a brief review of the major approaches to political personalityassessment,we will demonstrate our method of coding psychodiagnostic data extracted frompublicly available information and constructing personality profilescompatiblewith conventional psychodiagnostic procedures of personality assessment. Ourapproach is informed by the conceptual model of Theodore Millon, which offersanempirically validated taxonomy of adaptive personality patterns and theirmaladaptive variants, congruent with the syndromes described on Axis II ofDSM-IV.Workshop participants will receive an inventory of diagnostic criteria, amanualwith scoring instructions and interpretive guidelines, practical examples ofassessment protocols, and hands-on instruction in administering theinventory.We will also provide guidelines for reconceptualizing the assessment resultsinterms of the five-factor model of personality, Dean Keith Simonton's fivedimensions of presidential style, and James David Barber's fourfold typologyofpresidential character.

Workshop III:Meerman IIDecisionsUsing Experimental Exercises and Experiments to BetterUnderstand How People Make Political Judgments andCoordinator: Helen E. Purkitt, U.S. Naval AcademyThis workshop examines how experimental exercises and experiments can be usedtobetter understand how people make political judgments and decisions.Attendeeswill participate in three exercises and then compare these results withrelevantpast findings. These exercises include: a framing exercise based on prospecttheory, a political judgment experiment entitled "Beauty and the Politician,"anda small group experiment that requires participants to make recommendationsabouthow to spend a budget surplus in a mythical, modern nation-state. Thisexperiment replicates one conducted in the 1980's. Each of these framingexercises will serve as a point of departure for discussions of how differenttypes of experimental exercises can be used to learn more about how peoplethinkabout and make decisions about politics. Participants will receive thematerialsnecessary to use these exercises for their own teaching or research purposes.Saturday, July 17, 1:00 p.m.- 6:00 p.m.Preconference tour:Guided bus tour of Waterstate (a still-existing 13th century form of Dutchdemocracy)and the historic city of Edam.
