Abstract
This essay asks what can be learned from three cases of negotiations over United States military bases in foreign countries. The lessons, developed from observations made by negotiators and support staff to each of the U.S. delegations, are organized in terms of a general framework emphasizing context and process. This framework provides a structure for insights that contribute both to theory and to practice. A concluding section frames the essay by highlighting key lessons, just as the section on the background of each case frames it at the beginning.
