Family, The Market, And Adr, The, Amy J. Cohen
Family, The Market, And Adr, The, Amy J. Cohen
Journal of Dispute Resolution
This Article proceeds in three Parts. I begin by briefly summarizing what I will refer to as separate spheres ideology-the idea that our normative understandings of the family and the market are constructed in contradistinction to one another. I then show how this conceptual distinction between the family and the market shaped the development of alternative dispute processing during two periods of time. The first period, which I introduce to frame the second, examines how dispute processing reformers-beginning during the Progressive era and continuing to the 1930s-distinguished alternative forums for family disputes from alternative forums for commercial ones. In Part …

Comment: Trends And Challenges In Bringing Together Adr And The Rule Of Law, Stephanie E. Smith
Journal of Dispute Resolution
The goals of justice, peace, and prosperity will not be achieved overnight. Strategies that aim to achieve a perfect state in a short time frame are doomed to failure. Rule of law approaches should be individualized for local context, and be nimble enough to adapt over time to advance these ambitious goals. Success will require drawing upon expertise from many practice areas and academic fields, and coordinating activities to maximize limited resources.

Procedural Justice And The Rule Of Law: Fostering Legitimacy In Alternative Dispute Resolution, Rebecca Hollander-Blumoff, Tom R. Tyler
Journal of Dispute Resolution
In Part II, we provide background on the psychology of procedural justice. Then, because the term rule of law has been used so widely and in so many different ways, we explain its various meanings and go on to draw connections between the elements of procedural justice and the rule of law, highlighting both the similarities and distinctions between the two principles. We then marshal evidence in support of the critical role that procedural justice and rule of law values play in fostering perceptions of legitimacy. Part III explores the links among procedural justice, rule of law, and specific ADR …

Adr And Transitional Justice As Reconstructing The Rule Of Law, Michal Alberstein
Adr And Transitional Justice As Reconstructing The Rule Of Law, Michal Alberstein
Journal of Dispute Resolution
This paper addresses the role of ADR in reconstructing the rule of law following the critique this idea received during the 20th century, and exemplifies this role through reference to another alternative movement in law-The Transitional Justice movement. In contrast to efforts to reconcile the notion of the rule of law with ADR, or to demarcate the proper interaction between these social institutions in achieving justice, this paper argues for a deeper connection between the two notions: After briefly analyzing the intricate meanings of the rule of law notion through history and its relation to ADR, the paper continues to …
Deliberative Look At Alternative Dispute Resolution And The Rule Of Law, A, Peter Muhlberger
Deliberative Look At Alternative Dispute Resolution And The Rule Of Law, A, Peter Muhlberger
Journal of Dispute Resolution
This paper critiques the foundations of Aragaki's analysis, but also gives credit on the importance of dealing with people as less than fully rational. The critique suggests, again, a deep commonality between DD and ADR and potential improvements to both approaches. True collaboration between these approaches, however, requires some re-theorizing of both, including a reconsideration of rationality itself. This paper will sketch some ways in which this might be achieved and, in particular, how DD theory and research may prove helpful for ADR.
