This new edition considers a wide range of materials dealing with dispute processes and current debates on civil justice.
Dispute Process
"This wide-ranging study considers the primary forms of decision-making - negotiation, mediation and umpiring - in the context of rapidly changing discourses and practices of civil justice recognisable across many jurisdictions. Much contemporary discussion in this field, and associated projects of institutional design, are taking place under the inclusive but imprecise label of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR). If a common, linking theme is sought, the authors argue that this must lie in a general shift of priorities, in ideological terms, as between judgement and settlement." "This new edition brings together and analyses a broad range of materials dealing with dispute processes and the current debates on civil justice. With the help of a selection of texts beyond those ordinarily found in the emerging alternative dispute resolution literature it provides a broad, comparative perspective on modes of handling civil disputes, with the principal focus on the central processes of negotiation and mediation. Mainly aimed at students of law, the book will also appeal to sociologists and anthropologists interested in disputes and their management, and those concerned with the development of new ways of providing legal and other dispute resolution services."--BOOK JACKET.
