"Fogging" is a concept in negotiation. What does it mean ?

Thanks,

1-Fogging is a simple technique used to slow down a potentially unpleasant situation, give both parties 'space' and prevent the situation from escalating further. It works by offering agreement rather than disagreement to someone acting in an aggressive manner.

2-The Fogging Technique is a way to accept criticism without letting it bring you down. Just imagine you're like the fog. When someone throws a stone at you, you accept it and you envelop the stone in your fog without throwing the stone back at the other person.

Fogging technique can be used to slow down any unpleasant situation and creating some space between two parties to go further. it depends upon the deal and business 

Thank you for inviting me to answer this question.

Fogging technique is something usually every smart man does with his wife when she criticizes him, instead of arguing but accepting. Manipulative criticism uses to generalize particular states, behaviors or acts pretending that this would be your permanent state/behavior. It does such to make you feel guilty, to back off, play defensive and to take over you. Instead of arguing, you accept the truth part of the statement as truth hic et nunc (here and now) and not as a permanent feature. It's hard to argue with someone that agreed (even in part) your statement.

Thanks I do not have a professional answer
