Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) processes are now widely used throughout Australia to resolve and manage disputes without the need to use traditional rights-based processes such as litigation. ADR usually refers to dispute resolution processes that are 'alternative' to traditional court proceedings. ADR is also now used as an acronym for 'assisted', 'additional', 'affirmative', or 'appropriate' dispute resolution processes within the Australian environment. ADR processes can be used across diverse areas, including commercial, legal, social, environmental and political fields. This paper identifies some key features and trends in the Australian ADR context.

Embodied Conflict Resolution: Resurrecting Roleplay-Based Curricula Through Dance, Nadja Alexander, Michelle Lebaron
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
Moving on from the authors’ seminal 2009 critique of the overuse of role-plays in negotiation teaching, "Death of the Role-Play" (chapter 13 in Rethinking Negotiation Teaching), Alexander and LeBaron have taken the rapidly increasing enthusiasm for experiential learning in a new direction: multiple intelligences. Their particular interest is in a use of experiential learning that focuses on kinesthetic intelligence, employing actual physical movement, particularly dance, to unlock creativity in other mental domains, as well as to encourage authentic participation by people whose skills are not primarily verbal or mathematical. Those who may be inclined to be skeptical should note that …

Cross-Border Insolvency Problems: Is The Uncitral Model Law The Answer?, S. Chandra Mohan
Cross-Border Insolvency Problems: Is The Uncitral Model Law The Answer?, S. Chandra Mohan
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
This paper examines the impact that the UNCITRAL Model Law on Cross-border Insolvency has had on States in the light of the central problems often associated with transnational insolvencies. Despite the accolades that it has received, the Model Law has been adopted in only 19 countries in the last 15 years and that too in many different ways. If the number of adoptees and the rather conditional acceptance of the Model Law’s provisions represent a lack of international enthusiasm for adopting the Model Law, what are the reasons for this? The paper concludes by asking whether the UNCITRAL Model Law …

Confrontation Or Conciliation: Does Science Have The Answer?, Nadja Alexander
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
In this post, I want to talk about an important thread that is emerging in the science of the twenty-first century. It is the finding that we are all interconnected, that we are porous beings with the ability to influence not only ourselves but one another in ways not previously contemplated. What we previously knew as real, that is the Cartesian duality of mind and body and the notion of separateness in relation to individuals and objects is a fast-fading myth. This new paradigm for understanding and experiencing the world has profound implications for our approach to conflict. It suggests …

Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
Imagine an e-mediator who can reframe parties’ feelings and overall mood based on their speech patterns as they talk into an ODR program. Imagine recreating the real-life intensity of emotional and social connections through an avatar in an online mediation setting. Imagine anonymous brainstorming, secret meetings in e-rooms and having access to a web-based intelligent agent to advise parties on walkaway alternatives and interest-based trade-offs. No, this is not a science-fiction film—it is ODR technology, the mediation world biggest kept secret.

Securing Natural Justice In Arbitration Proceedings, Austin Ignatius Pulle
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
The legitimacy and integrity of any system that adjudicates the rights and duties ofpersons would be evaluated by reference to the standards required by the principles of natural justice. Arbitration is becoming more popular as a system of dispute resolution because of the exponential increase of cross-border transactions that are a feature of globalization. Now arbitrations take place in countries that lack a well-developed arbitration culture. Courts in some of these countries have yet to develop a coherent body of law that clarifies and gives effect to the principles of natural justice. Moreover, important values protected by natural justice principles …

Investment Treaty Disputes: Ideological Fault Lines And An Evolving Zeitgeist, Locknie Hsu
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
The zeitgeist of the 21st century in the field of investment treaty arbitrations comprises a rise in the number of such arbitrations and accompanying observations on the unwieldy jurisprudential effects of such a rise. The international investment arbitration community is alive with discussion over these effects, which discussion includes an examination of the value of prior awards as precedents.' The existing regime based on treaty interpretation clearly provides no formal system of precedent and the 'players' (read: arbitrators) change from dispute to dispute as investment arbitration tribunals do not fall within a single, neat judicial hierarchical system. With the number …

The Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) movement has gained significant traction over the last three decades and has been expanding at a rapid pace in many common law jurisdictions. The allure of ADR lies, in large part, in its recognition of litigants’ desire for self-determination and autonomy in resolving their disputes. ADR became even more attractive as dissatisfaction with the traditional court system grew. In the seminal Roscoe Pound Conference on Popular Causes of Dissatisfaction with the Administration of Justice in USA, the changing role of the courts was highlighted, casting ADR further into the spotlight.i Instead of offering only adjudication …

Throughout the 20th century the arbitration house has dominated the landscape of international commercial dispute resolution withthe court house providing another part of the structural landscape. In the 21st century foundations are being laid for construction of a free-standing mediation house in international dispute resolution practice. Meanwhile a closer inspection of arbitration house reveals the ongoing construction of mediation and other ADR windows in its design. In this paper I explore how and why mediation windows are being built, their structural and functional soundness and the extent to which they may open up and transform arbitration.
