OUP is publishing an edited collection on foundational articles in alternative dispute resolution.
ABOUT THE BOOK
While arbitration was robust in
colonial and early America, dispute resolution lost its footing to the court
system as the United States grew into a bustling and burgeoning country. And
while dispute resolution processes emerged briefly from time to time, they were
dormant until the enactment of the Federal Arbitration Act and collective
bargaining grew out of the labor movement. But it wasn't until 1976, when Frank
Sander delivered his famous remarks at the Pound Conference, that the modern
dispute resolution movement was born. By the year 2000, alternative dispute
resolution had transformed from a populist rebellion against the judicial
system to mainstream legal practice. Today, lawyers and retiring judges look to
arbitration and mediation for a career pivot, and law schools train law
students in the finer arts of dispute resolution practice as both providers and
advocates. Discussions in Dispute Resolution brings together the modern dispute
resolution field's most influential commentaries in its first few decades and
reflects on what makes these pieces so important. This book collects 16
foundational writings, four pieces from each of the field's primary
subfields--negotiation, mediation, arbitration, and public policy. Each piece
has four commenters who answer the question: why is this work a foundational
piece in the dispute resolution field? The purpose in asking this simple
question is fourfold: to hail the field's foundational generation and their
work, to bring a fresh look at these articles, to engage the articles' original
authors where possible, and to challenge the articles with the benefit of
hindsight. Where possible, the book gives the authors of the original pieces
the opportunity either to reflect on the piece itself or to respond to the
other commenters.
