Negotiating On Un-Holy Land: The Road From Israel To Palestine , Randolph "Michael" Nacol Ii
Negotiating On Un-Holy Land: The Road From Israel To Palestine , Randolph "Michael" Nacol Ii
Pepperdine Dispute Resolution Law Journal
The Middle East is no stranger to conflict. In particular, the land currently called "Israel" has been through the hands of many dynasties and has long been the center of religious development and identity. Despite turmoil and failed attempts at achieving peace, there is no excuse for complacency in resolving this intolerable Israeli-Palestinian divide. The conflict is arguably the longest, most complicated, deep-seated, and vicious battle in modern history. This article explores various fundamentals of negotiation and settlement with the hopes of spurring ideas, and furthering an interest in how this great conflict might finally be resolved. Recognizing most topics …
Building A Nation From Thirteen States: The Constitutional Convention And Preemption, Edward J. Larson
Building A Nation From Thirteen States: The Constitutional Convention And Preemption, Edward J. Larson
Pepperdine Law Review
This article is adapted from a talk Professor Larson gave at Pepperdine’s symposium on federal preemption of state tort law - the problem of medical drugs and devices. Professor Larson begins with a discussion of the Constitutional Convention and James Madison’s role in the creation of the U.S. Constitution. He relates how fifteen resolutions, developed by Madison and the other Virginia delegates, became known as the Virginia Plan, and served as the foundation for the Constitution. Professor Larson continues by examining Madison’s notes of the Convention. Specifically he shares what the notes relate about the deliberations at the Convention regarding …

American Influence On Israeli Law: Freedom Of Expression, Pnina Lahav
American Influence On Israeli Law: Freedom Of Expression, Pnina Lahav
Faculty Scholarship
This chapter provides a historical overview of the American influence on Israel’s jurisprudence of freedom of expression from the 1950s to the first decade of the twenty first century. The chapter uses the format of decades, presenting representative cases for each decade, to record the process by which Israeli judges incorporated and sometimes rejected themes from the U.S. jurisprudence of freedom of expression. In the course of discussing the jurisprudential themes the chapter also highlights the historical context in which the cases were decided, from the war in Korea and McCarthyism in the 1950s, to the process of globalization which …

Mediation Outcomes: Lawyers' Experience With Commercial And Construction Mediation In The United Kingdom , Penny Brooker, Anthony Lavers
Pepperdine Dispute Resolution Law Journal
This paper reports on the final phase of a three-year study into the role of lawyers in the development of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) following the implementation of the Civil Procedure Rules in 1999 and draws comparisons between US and Canadian studies. The paper centres on the use of mediation, which is recognised as the pre-eminent ADR process in the UK. Data are analysed from 30 interviews with specialist commercial and construction-related lawyers who have utilised mediation in the dispute resolution process. Interviewees were selected from respondents to a national survey of lawyers specializing in commercial and construction-related practice. Whereas …
The Gacaca Experiment: Rwanda's Restorative Dispute Resolution Response To The 1994 Genocide, Jessica Raper
The Gacaca Experiment: Rwanda's Restorative Dispute Resolution Response To The 1994 Genocide, Jessica Raper
Pepperdine Dispute Resolution Law Journal
Since its rise to power in July of 1994, the Rwandan government has been committed to prosecuting all those accused of genocide. To prosecute the approximately 130,000 defendants, Rwanda has adopted a program called gacaca, based on Rwanda's traditional customary dispute resolution system. The gacaca law provides a reconciliation component that allows defendants to trade confessions of past genocide crimes for indemnification, as well as a prosecution component that holds the most serious offenders accountable in a Western style prosecution in a formal court of law. One of the main goals of gacaca is to end the so-called "culture …
Team Mediation: An Interdisciplinary Model Balancing Mediation In The "Matrix" , David C. Hesser, Elizabeth Jarrell Craig
Team Mediation: An Interdisciplinary Model Balancing Mediation In The "Matrix" , David C. Hesser, Elizabeth Jarrell Craig
Pepperdine Dispute Resolution Law Journal
The Team Mediation model proposed in this article lays a foundation for the resolution of civil disputes utilizing an interdisciplinary team, which will attempt to balance mediation styles in a team dynamic in such a way as to provide the parties with a greater chance of success. Such a model will likely be met with skepticism and, as with any new idea, its benefits will need to be demonstrated to overtake the skeptics.

Style Vs. Model: Why Quibble? , Susan Oberman
Style Vs. Model: Why Quibble? , Susan Oberman
Pepperdine Dispute Resolution Law Journal
This article raises some of the questions necessary to address criticisms about quality and ethics of mediation practices: (Part I) Is there a "mandate" to provide informal justice through mediation? (Part II) Why challenge the generic mediation mythology? (Part III) Does naming differences as 'styles' result in greater clarity? (Part IV) Is mediation fulfilling its "mandate" to serve the court? (Part V) What are the obstacles to changing the dominant discourse on mediation? (Part VI) In answering these questions, an alternative framework is proposed to shift the current discourse about generic mediation based on artistry or style, to a discourse …

Antitrust Energy, D. Daniel Sokol, Barak Orbach
Antitrust Energy, D. Daniel Sokol, Barak Orbach
UF Law Faculty Publications
Marking the centennial anniversary of Standard Oil Co. v. United States, we argue that much of the critique of antitrust enforcement and the skepticism about its social significance suffer from “Nirvana fallacy” — comparing existing and feasible policies to ideal normative policies, and concluding that the existing and feasible ones are inherently inefficient because of their imperfections. Antitrust law and policy have always been and will always be imperfect. However, they are alive and kicking. The antitrust discipline is vibrant, evolving, and global. This essay introduces a number of important innovations in scholarship related to Standard Oil and its modern …

Americans' Unwillingness To Pay Taxes Before The American Revolution: An Uncomfortable Legacy, Richard A. Westin
Americans' Unwillingness To Pay Taxes Before The American Revolution: An Uncomfortable Legacy, Richard A. Westin
Law Faculty Scholarly Articles
When one reflects on the sorry condition of America’s finances one has to wonder why there is such resistance to fiscal discipline. Is it merely because there is an obstreperous group in the US Congress who cannot abide any tax? Has the public been subtly lobbied into believing that American taxes are high, pointless and intolerable or is there some gene in the America’s body politic that has always been there that expresses itself from time to time in a pernicious cheapness? Perhaps all those things are true, or perhaps none. Nevertheless, a glance backward at Colonial days can stimulate …

Negotiating And Mediating Peace In Africa , Nancy Erbe, Chinedu Bob Ezeh, Daniel Karanja, Neba Monifor, George Mubanga, Ndi Richard Tanto
Pepperdine Dispute Resolution Law Journal
Last year, a law review solicited my thoughts about, in their words, pushing the envelope with social justice and negotiating peace in a world dominated by power and violence. Taking their language literally, one must ask how to effectively address contemporary obstacles to ensure that the message and, most importantly, the means of justice are truly delivered to those in need. One answer-which may seem obvious to readers but is actually much too rare in practice-is to work with, empower, and support the conflict work of the community members themselves. This article introduces the plans of five African professionals, demonstrating …

This special symposium edition of the Journal is comprised of select papers and speeches presented at that event and provide thoughtful …
