Mediation
Mediation is used to resolve disputes in business, employment, education, domestic relationships, religious organizations, government, international relations, and, of course, litigation. Mediation: Skills and Techniques offers a comprehensive course of study of the mediation process, from convening the mediation to formalizing the settlement agreement.

Importantly, the book adopts an interdisciplinary approach to mediation that incorporates scientific principles from law, psychology, conflict management, and sociology. It also surveys careers in mediation and explains how to market a mediation business. Whether you are a student, mediator, lawyer, psychologist, businessperson, clergy member, or social worker, this book answers the call for a broad and systematic education in mediation with an emphasis on practical, science-based mediation skills and techniques. This second edition includes new chapters on balancing power among parties in mediation, evaluative mediation, and virtual mediation.
International and Comparative Mediation
"In a world where the borders of the global community are fluid, and where disputants manifest increasingly diverse attributes and needs, mediation ? for decades hovering at the edge of dispute resolution practice ? is now emerging as the preferred approach, both in its own right and as an adjunct to arbitration. Mediation processes are sufficiently flexible to accommodate a range of stakeholders (not all of whom might have legal standing) in ways the formality of arbitration and litigation would not normally allow. Among mediation?s many advantages are time and cost efficiencies, sensitivity to cultural differences, and assured privacy and confidentiality. This book meets the practice needs of lawyers confronted with cross-border disputes now arising far beyond the traditional areas of international commerce, such as consumer disputes, inter-family conflicts, and disagreements over Internet-based transactions. The author takes full account of mediation?s risks and limitations, primarily its lack of finality and uncertainty in relation to enforceability issues which will persist until the advent of appropriate international regulation."--Publisher's website.
Global Trends in Mediation
In its first edition, Global Trends in Mediation was the first book to concentrate on mediation from a comparative perspective - reaching beyond the all-too-familiar Anglo-American view - and as such has enjoyed wide practical use among alternative dispute resolution (ADR) practitioners worldwide. This new edition has not only been updated throughout; it has also added two new jurisdictions (France and Quebec) and a very useful comparative table summarising the salient points from each of the fourteen jurisdictional chapters. Each jurisdictional chapter addresses critical structural and process issues in alternative dispute resolution such as the institutionalisation of mediation, mediation case law and legislation, the range and nature of disputes where mediation is utilised, court-related mediation, mediation practice standards, education, training and accreditation of mediators, the role of lawyers in mediation, online dispute resolution and future trends. All the contributors are senior dispute resolution academics or practitioners with vast knowledge and experience of dispute resolution developments in their countries and abroad.
