With ‘The Rise of the Regulatory State’ 1 at the beginning of the twentieth century, regulation replaced litigation as the main method of social control in the United States. Over the past few decades, more and more countries around the world started to follow the example of the United States, which led to the global expansion of the regulatory state. This in turn spurred more international disputes due to divergences in the respective regulatory standards. Theoretically speaking, global regulation might be the best solution. However, so far this not happened, partly due to the paralysis of the law-making functions of …

Zf Automotive V. Luxshare: The Supreme Court’S New Gloss On 28 U.S. Code § 1782 And What It Means For International Commercial Arbitration, Madina Lokova
Journal of Dispute Resolution
The federal statute 28 U.S.C. § 1782 (“Section 1782”) allows litigants in foreign proceedings to obtain discovery in the United States, under the broad US discovery rules, for use in such proceedings. Although Section 1782’s use by parties to foreign proceedings has been expanding, there was a split in authority regarding whether the statute was broad enough to permit United States’ courts to authorize discovery for use in private arbitration proceedings overseas.

Strategies For Successful Negotiation Of International Disputes: Positional Bargaining Vs. Principled Negotiation In The Indus Water Treaty Negotiations, Sushant Mahajan
Journal of Dispute Resolution
Water is the root of all civilization. Great empires of the past arose around lakes and river systems, from the Yangtze to the Nile to the Tiber. While water resources bolstered the power of world leaders, water mismanagement had the potential to lead to their downfall. Even in modern times, water availability is a significant constraint on development – the magnitude of this constraint is particularly felt in arid and semi-arid regions especially as climate change takes effect. This importance has made water supply a great source of conflict. Though it has been a cause of conflict for centuries, transboundary …

Sunny Days Ahead: Using Adr To Fuel The Future Of Green Energy, Matthew Graham
Journal of Dispute Resolution
The energy landscape in the United States (“U.S.”) has undergone significant changes in the last few centuries. Energy consumption has increased dramatically as more energy sources have been developed. As one of the world’s leading energy consumers, the U.S. has a large incentive to develop energy solutions that are both sustainable, dependable, and independent of foreign powers. For these reasons, Congress has spent the last few decades passing numerous pieces of legislation encouraging investment in energy solutions that will benefit the U.S. for centuries. With the enactment of the Inflation Reduction Act (“IRA”) of 2022, the U.S. has made its …

Why Removing Institutional Discretion And Applying Restorative Justice To Mediation Could Prove Beneficial To Title Ix Dispute Resolution, Clare Hensley
Journal of Dispute Resolution
University students have often voiced concern that their institution did not do enough in addressing sexual assaults on campus. There is a perception among students and potential victims that there is a culture of ignoring and underreacting to sexual violence on campus. As many as one in five female undergraduate students experience sexual violence during college, but few feel confident enough to report it.

A “Rule Making” Class: The Federal Trade Commission’S Expansive Per Se Ban On Noncompete Clauses: Authority, Enforceability, And The Need For Congressional Action, Nolan Johnson
Journal of Dispute Resolution
A non-compete clause is “an agreement or contract not to interfere or compete with a former employer (as by working with a competitor).” The Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) has proposed a per se ban on non-compete provisions in employment contracts. This would arguably be the FTC’s second substantive rule under the FTC Act. This substantive rule making departs from the traditional common law style rule-making process in which the courts create antitrust jurisprudence standards. In this way, the FTC has challenged the practice by exploring a new avenue of power under Section 5 of the FTC Act.

Odd One Out: Inconsistency In The Federal Arbitration Act’S Jurisdictional Language, Joshua Long
Journal of Dispute Resolution
After almost a century, the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) continues to guide and change the arbitration landscape. While greater focus has been placed on the FAA’s substantive merits and evolution, the act’s procedural role in outlining the relationship between arbitration and the federal court system plays an equally important role in alternate dispute resolution. Notably, recent concerns regarding inconsistencies in the act’s jurisdictional language may undermine the FAA’s ability to provide a clear, efficient, and fair process for arbitration.

Journal of Dispute Resolution
In 2022, the 117th Congress amended the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) in response to widespread public pressure to change the culture of American employment. After years of pervasive sexual harassment across industries, supported by the growth of mandatory, adhesive arbitral agreements in employment contracts, Congress adopted the Ending Forced Arbitration of Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment Act of 2021 (“Ending Forced Arbitration Act”) which rendered unenforceable pre-dispute arbitral agreements for claims of sexual harassment or sexual assault. 1

Climate Diplomacy: Can Mediating Climate Considerations Into Peace Agreements Create A Sustainable Future?, Kayla Fowler
Journal of Dispute Resolution
The Earth’s temperature has risen on average 0.14 degrees Fahrenheit per decade since 1880—a total of 2 degrees. Since 1981, the rate of warming has been over twice as fast at 0.32 degrees Fahrenheit per decade. 2022 was the sixth-warmest year on record, and the 10 warmest years have all occurred since 2010. These long-term shifts in temperature exemplify the changes to our climate due to the increasing accumulation of gases caused by human activity on Earth, more commonly referred to as climate change. While it is abundantly clear that climate change is negatively affecting our environment, it is also …
