This new Dispute Resolution: Beyond the Adversarial Model 4th Edition covers the key processes of negotiation, mediation, and arbitration with later chapters diving into hybrid and multiparty processes, dispute system design, and counseling your client about dispute resolution processes.
This latest fourth edition casebook provides a comprehensive look at the current state of ADR, incorporating four key aspects for each of Negotiation, Mediation, Arbitration, and hybrid processes: the theoretical framework defining the process; the skills needed to practice it; the ethical issues implicated in its use and how to counsel users of such processes; and legal and policy analyses. Throughout the text, students are engaged as active participants in resolving problems, using individual or combined resolution processes in varying gender, race, and cultural contexts, as well as current events. This award-winning author team uses thought-provoking, interesting readings in addition to exercises and discussion problems to enhance the latest edition of this widely respected textbook, designed with instructors and students in mind.
New to the 4th Edition:
- Applications to current, real world problems with Problem Boxes for class discussion
- The latest on Online Dispute Resolution and the evolution of Dispute System Design
