Abstract Palestine’s alternative dispute resolution process, the ṣulḥa system, is utilized in the vast majority of civil and criminal disputes. Despite the popularity of the ṣulḥa process, there exists, to date, no international legal assessment of such proceedings. This article assesses Palestinian ṣulḥa’s adherence to international rule of law standards. Using rule of law theory to assess the fairness, equity, and accessibility of the ṣulḥa system, this article determines that Palestinian ṣulḥa proceedings satisfy the major requirements of international rule of law standards.

International Rule

In 2008, Ecuador raised the need for the creation of an alternative dispute resolution mechanism within the Union of South American Nations (UNASUR). Any system of investment arbitration should comply with democratic principles and the international rule of law which provide predictability, transparency and legitimacy for arbitral decisions and thus should avoid political and economic bias. This article shows Latin America’s historical inclination towards arbitration and focuses on the 2014 UNASUR Project’s proposed method of appointment and disqualification of arbitrators, and its approach to the execution of awards. By way of comparison with International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) tribunals, the article goes on to suggest how an application of the international rule of law could help guide and structure arbitrators’ behaviours in the proposed UNASUR Project as well as under the current ICSID framework to avoid arbitrators’ deviation from the law and prevent their creative, independent interpretations.

Article 5

This chapter explores Article 5 on mediation of the 2014 ICDR Rules. Mediation is a very effective alternative dispute-resolution process, in which the mediator assists the parties to settle their disputes by a process of discussion and narrowing differences. The mediator does not have the power to render binding decisions, rather the parties aim to reach agreement amongst themselves with the mediator’s assistance. Under Article 5, the ICDR may invite the parties to mediate or the parties may agree to mediate in accordance with the ICDR’s International Mediation Rules at any time while the arbitration proceedings are pending. The mediation shall in principle proceed in parallel with arbitration to avoid any delay. Ultimately, the 2014 ICDR Rules reflect a desire to encourage the parties to consider the benefits of mediation, particularly early in the dispute resolution process, without forcing them to mediate.

Changing Society

In recent times, most of the parties involved in dispute resolution process are favoring Alternative Dispute Resolution or ADR over the formal adjudication process due to ADR’s distinguished benefits. In order to reduce the backlog and pressure of workload, courts randomly select alternative ways to settle dispute. Therefore, a question can be raised how well ADR is working in reality? If a dispute is in existence between a company and an individual, the individual might not get a proper redress against an esteemed company. Moreover, there is a possibility of bias in favor of those who is in the superior positions. Though it was a courageous effort from the legislature and the judiciary to make the dispute resolution system compatible with the changing society, a question remains: how much upshot is there in the legal field? To what extent does the ADR process elude or ensure justice? DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jbt.v8i1-2.18283 Journal of Business and Technology (Dhaka) Vol.8(1-2) 2013; 1-16

Any form of workplace abuse, be it bullying, sexual or non-sexual harassment, or other forms of workplace violence, represents a significant problem for both workers and organisations. The reality that worker complaints of such abuse are often silenced, frequently for long periods of time, has recently been spotlighted by the #MeToo movement. In this article we focus particularly on workplace bullying (some definitions include harassment). We explore how potential, and actual, complaints of such abuse may silenced—both before complaints are ever made, and also at different points along the complaint or dispute resolution process. We investigate how definitional and naming issues, worker ignorance and incapacity, workplace investigations, (alternative) dispute resolution and the legal pathways available to targets of workplace bullying and harassment may act to silence complaints. We also provide some practical suggestions for the targets of workplace abuse.

Diversity In The Workplace

The workplace is a focal point for debates about religion and public life. This article examines the question of religion at work, and how to fairly resolve the conflicts it generates. Specifically, it advocates for the use of alternative dispute resolution to address these conflicts. Alternative dispute resolution refers to a set of dispute processing methods, mainly arbitration and mediation. Unlike litigation, these procedures rely on the consent and cooperation of the parties involved. I argue that alternative dispute resolution is best conceived of as a desirable complement to the rule of law rather than a cheaper alternative. It conveys a distinctive approach to procedural fairness, which is attentive to individual circumstances, and it frames the relationship between disputants in a cooperative way. Alternative dispute resolution is thus a valuable tool for the accommodation of religious diversity in the professional world.
