Mediation Paradigms And Professional Identities: Can Mediators Activate A New Movement For Justice?, John M. Lande
Mediation Paradigms And Professional Identities: Can Mediators Activate A New Movement For Justice?, John M. Lande
Faculty Publications
This article, written early in the modern ADR era, provided a framework for developing the mediation field. It begins by elaborating William Simon’s critique of the “ideology of advocacy.” Simon argues that the adversary system is supposed to foster values of individuality, autonomy, responsibility, and dignity, but it often undermines those values in practice. This article catalogs a “parade of horribles” experienced by disputants, attorneys, judges, and the public. These include unequal access to justice, procedural rules that frustrate substantive justice, a narrow set of available remedies, a game psychology undermines respect for law and justice, parties’ alienating experience in …
The Pros And Cons Of Getting To Yes, James J. White
The Pros And Cons Of Getting To Yes, James J. White
Reviews
Getting to YES is a puzzling book. On the one hand it offers a forceful and persuasive criticism of much traditional negotiating behavior. It suggests a variety of negotiating techniques that are both clever and likely to facilitate effective negotiation. On the other hand, the authors seem to deny the existence of a significant part of the negotiation process, and to oversimplify or explain away many of the most troublesome problems inherent in the art and practice of negotiation. The book is frequently naive, occasionally self-righteous, but often helpful.
Use And Non-Use Of Contract Law In Japan, Whitmore Gray
Use And Non-Use Of Contract Law In Japan, Whitmore Gray
Articles
This article first defines the scope of enquiry, then surveys some of the existing literature, and finally, presents the results of my preliminary survey interviews and questionnaire. It is my hope that it will serve as a basis form discussion leading to better definition of the problems for research in this area, and will suggest ways to proceed to gather the information necessary for more sophisticated exposition and commentary.
Drafting The Arbitration Clause, Whitmore Gray
Drafting The Arbitration Clause, Whitmore Gray
Book Chapters
Providing in the contract for ways to resolve disputes that may arise presents a substantial challenge to the lawyer. In one sense this is what he or she is doing in general in contract drafting--anticipating misunderstandings or problems which experience indicates are likely to arise, and trying to provide clear answers in advance. When it comes to drafting a specific clause for the resolution of further disputes which may arise, however, many lawyers are at a substantial disadvantage. The task comes at the end of the substantive negotiations. The client does not want to focus on or draw the other …
The Iranian Asset Negotiations, John E. Hoffman, Jr.
The Iranian Asset Negotiations, John E. Hoffman, Jr.
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
At the outset, I owe an obligation to you and to my fellow panelists to reveal my true colors. Following the remarks of Mr. Aksen and Mr. Rhodes, you would be entitled to expect me to give some examples of how some distressed clients entered this wonderful world of arbitration, how the scales fell from their corporate eyes, and how their problems were solved. I am going to tell a bit of a story this afternoon. The focus of it is arbitration, but I should tell you it is not an arbitration that occurred. The story is of an arbitration …

Lawyer's Skills In Negotiations: Justice In Unseen Hands, Jeffrey H. Hartje
Journal of Dispute Resolution
The purpose of this article is to identify and explore the processes and dynamics of lawyer negotiation at the skill level. Part I, Operational Skills in Preparation for Negotiation, examines processes and subprocesses of negotiation to develop a background for understanding the potential areas of lawyer skill involved in the operation of negotiation in Section A. Section B explores the preparation skills involved including the analysis and development of a negotiation theory of the case which requires an understanding of the substance of the negotiation, norms, precedent and power combined with fact management and effective characterization of the facts of …
Pleading And Practice In Commercial Paper Cases: Burdens Of Proof, Harold R. Weinberg
Pleading And Practice In Commercial Paper Cases: Burdens Of Proof, Harold R. Weinberg
Law Faculty Scholarly Articles
Money debts are frequently paid by checks and evidenced by notes subject to Article Three of the Uniform Commercial Code. Financial institutions and other creditors ordinarily take these instruments with the expectation that they will be paid on time without resort to litigation. This expectation fails when the debtor or some other obligor on the instrument claims that its signature was unauthorized or that there is a defense against payment. This Article analyzes the Uniform Commercial Code rules concerning burdens of proof that apply to these disputes and gives consideration to related procedural and evidentiary questions. It concludes with some …
