CommentsBargaining in the Shadow of the Law: The Case for ADR as a Field of Study

Author(s):

Mnookin and Kornhauser’s Bargaining in the Shadow of the Law is a critically important work for the alternative dispute resolution (ADR) field because it legitimized the study of negotiation within the legal academy. It did so by tethering bargaining to jurisprudence. Without Mnookin and Kornhauser’s insight that bargaining is a function of legal rules, the law remains confined to its portrayal in a standard first-year curriculum....

Not all marriages last and unlike other personal relationships, the dissolution of a marriage requires legal involvement to end the relationship. A divorce not only severs a marriage, but it also introduces legal involvement. That legal involvement is in the form of state laws that define how divorces are granted, whether the couple needs to have a formal separation before a divorce can be granted, how property should be divided upon dissolution, and whether formalized spousal financial support should commence. Although the law is involved in each of these issues, there are now more opportunities for the use of alternative dispute resolution options rather than traditional court settings that attempt to give more of the decision making back to the couple.

This article examines some of the factors contributing to the widespread compliance failures experienced by Chinese labour law. It focuses on the nature of the legal rules and the structure of state and quasi-state institutions charged with implementing the law. While the basic legal framework regulating labour in China appears designed to prevent many abuses, the lack of settled detail inhibits effective enforcement. The labour inspectorate, formal dispute resolution processes and the official trade union organization each suffer from weaknesses reducing their capacity to elicit compliance with the law. Some improvements to the law and the institutions are already being implemented. The article suggests further areas of reform that may increase compliance, within the constraints of China's current political realities.

Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) includes dispute resolution processes and techniques that act as a means for disagreeing parties to come to an agreement short of litigation. Despite historic resistance to ADR by many popular parties and their advocates, some courts now require some parties to resort to ADR of some type, usually mediation. The rising popularity of ADR can be explained by the increasing caseload of traditional courts, the perception that ADR imposes fewer costs than litigation, a preference for confidentiality, and the desire of some parties to have greater control over the selection of the individual or individuals who will decide their dispute. In Indonesia based on the Law No. 30/1999 concerning Alternative Dispute Resolution and Arbitration, ADR is interpreted as alternative to adjudication as it is reflected in the title of the Law No. 30/1999. Based on article 32 the collateral forclosure is enable to be done.

The authors point to the plurality of forms of consumer protection. Private law form of consumer protection is individual protection in civil proceedings. The protection of the collective interests of consumers in most European legal systems is achieved through litigation. The Consumer Protection Act entrusts the protection of the collective interests of consumers to administrative bodies, which is realized in administrative proceedings, whose rules are characterized by considerable differences in relation to the rules provided by the Law on General Administrative Procedure. A significant unit is dedicated to the mechanism of alternative dispute resolution, especially arbitration and mediation. The shortcomings of the Law on Consumer Protection regarding certain contradictory provisions are pointed out. The legislator stimulates alternative dispute resolution, and on the other hand stipulates that contracting one of these methods does not affect the right to judicial protection. The paper also analyses the inspection.
