Introduction To The Court Of Arbitration For Sport (Cas) & The Role Of National Courts In International Sports Disputes, An Symposium, Louise Reilly
Introduction To The Court Of Arbitration For Sport (Cas) & The Role Of National Courts In International Sports Disputes, An Symposium, Louise Reilly
Journal of Dispute Resolution
The founding purpose of the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) was to take international sports disputes out of national courts and provide a highly specialized forum where those disputes could be heard and decided, quickly and inexpensively, according to a flexible procedure. Since its inception, CAS has gained the recognition and trust of the international sports community and today, is the last instance of appeal for parties involved in a wide-range of sports-related disputes, including those related to all Olympic sports and many non-Olympic sports, football disputes, doping infractions and international commercial contracts. CAS has come to provide sportsmen …
Foreigners Beware: Exploring The Tension Between Saudi Arabian And Western International Commercial Arbitration Practices: In Re Aramco Services Co., Whitney Hampton
Foreigners Beware: Exploring The Tension Between Saudi Arabian And Western International Commercial Arbitration Practices: In Re Aramco Services Co., Whitney Hampton
Journal of Dispute Resolution
Increasing globalization in the Middle East has resulted in greater commercial interaction between Saudi Arabia and the West. This, in turn, has led to a resurgence of international arbitration agreements between Saudi Arabian businesses and their Western counterparts. However, the strong religious undertones in Saudi Arabian law have given rise to tension with the West, and the United States, in particular. In re Aramco Services is but a tiny piece in a very large puzzle. While the opinion is short, it serves as an indication, or perhaps a reminder, of the larger implications at work. This note will discuss these …

Adr Through A Cultural Lens: How Cultural Values Shape Our Disputing Processes, Julia Ann Gold
Adr Through A Cultural Lens: How Cultural Values Shape Our Disputing Processes, Julia Ann Gold
Journal of Dispute Resolution
I arrived for my second Nepali language class on time, but the teacher kept chatting about inconsequential things. I was paying by the hour, and we had already spent 25 minutes talking about nothing! A week later, I received an invitation to an art exhibit. The location was "Royal Museum," so that is where I went, only to find an empty building and no people. What had I missed? In my first meeting with the Dean of the Law Campus, we talked about trekking, the upcoming religious holidays, his visit to Seattle two years ago, relatives in the United States, …
Response To Carrie Menkel-Meadow's Correspondences And Contradictions In International And Domestic Conflict Resolution: Lessons From General Theory And Varied Contexts, Wallace Warfield
Journal of Dispute Resolution
In this article, I would like to first spend a little time clarifying (or perhaps muddying) what is meant by "domestic" and "international" when people talk about conflicts and how they are resolved. Geographical and content-defining terms tossed about cavalierly say more about competing hierarchies and elitism than functional geopolitical designations. Next, I will suggest that part of the problem is how we locate theory in this debate: What kinds of theories lend themselves to generalization and which ones do not? And does the problem lay with the theory or the theory interpreter?
Problem-Solving Negotiation: Northern Ireland's Experience With The Women's Coalition, Jacqueline Nolan-Haley, Bronagh Hinds
Problem-Solving Negotiation: Northern Ireland's Experience With The Women's Coalition, Jacqueline Nolan-Haley, Bronagh Hinds
Journal of Dispute Resolution
Women's peacemaking skills have long empowered them as voices for reconciliation in divided societies 8 and therefore, the role of women in preventive diplomacy, conflict resolution, and post conflict reconstruction is widely advanced today. Although historically women are credited with being actively involved in peacemaking efforts at the grassroots level during periods of conflict,' ° they are not generally considered to play a significant role in formal peace negotiations.' Northern Ireland proved to be an exception.'
Correspondences And Contradictions In International And Domestic Conflict Resolution: Lessons From General Theory And Varied Contexts, Carrie Menkel-Meadow
Correspondences And Contradictions In International And Domestic Conflict Resolution: Lessons From General Theory And Varied Contexts, Carrie Menkel-Meadow
Journal of Dispute Resolution
Does the field of conflict resolution have any broadly applicable theories that "work" across the different domains of international and domestic conflict? Or, are contexts, participants, and resources so "domain" specific and variable that only "thick descriptions" of particular contexts will do? These are important questions which have been plaguing me in this depressing time for conflict resolution professionals, from September 11, 2001 (9/11), to the war against Iraq. Have we learned anything about conflict resolution that really does improve our ability to describe, predict, and act to reduce unnecessary and harmful conflict? These are the questions I want to …
