Dispute Resolution System

The core of this article is a detailed investigation of the dispute resolution system contained within Darkode, an elite cybercriminal forum. Extracting the dedicated disputes section from within the marketplace, where users can report bad behavior and register complaints, we carry out content analysis on these threads. This involves both descriptive statistics across the data set and qualitative analysis of particular posts of interest, leading to a number of new insights. First, the overall level of disputes is quite high, even though members are vetted for entry in the first instance. Second, the lower ranked members of the marketplace are the most highly represented category for both the plaintiffs and defendants. Third, vendors are accused of malfeasance far more often than buyers, and their “crimes” are most commonly either not providing the product/service or providing a poor one. Fourth, the monetary size of the disputes is surprisingly small. Finally, only 23.1% of disputes reach a clear outcome.

Dispute Resolution System

In line with the changing of times, the transition from small-scale trade to global trade has invoked changes to the existing trade system to a more challenging one. This has made the impact being felt by the consumers. Users are getting more repressed in many forms of trade that are becoming more and more challenging besides testing the intellectual capabilities of consumers. The latest trading trend needs a change in its dispute resolution system to become more efficient and meet the demands of consumers and traders. The current trade scenario as well as the rise in matters of consumerism have made it crucial to outline a perfect and complete set of laws that is capable to protect the consumers’ rights and solve disputes that are usually arise in consumer-trader contract matters, that  is  sometimes unexpected. The laws formed can be beneficial if transparent and able to protect consumers involved in trade with traders, both nationally and internationally. This research aimed to discuss on the Japanese non-adversarial dispute resolutions which popularly known as non-litigious country and society. Being a library based-research, reference will be made to relevant authoritative texts, case studies, and applies the method of literature review through content analysis of documents. Overall, this paper finds that, without looking at the different theories introduced, until today, the Japanese still believe that disputes should not occur. If disputes do occur, the resolution is through a mutual resolution agreement contract. In this situation, they will give honest effort to compromise or resolution that they mutually agree upon.

Dispute Resolution System

There have been notable concerns in the current dual dispute resolution system in Kenya. The problems include protracted referral timeframes for dismissal disputes, non-regulation of maximum timeframes for the agreed extension after 30 days conciliation period has lapsed, the absence of statutory timeframes for appointing a conciliator/ commissioner and arbitration process under both the Labour Relations Act, 2007 and the Employment Act, 2007. Likewise, the responsibility of resolving statutory labour disputes in Kenya is still heavily under the control of the government through the Ministry of Labour. There is still no independent statutory dispute resolution institution as envisaged by the Labour Relations Act, 2007. As a result, the Kenyan dispute resolution system has been criticised for lack of impartiality leading to the increase in strikes and lockouts.This article examines the effectiveness of the Kenyan labour dispute resolution system. The article evaluates the provisions of international labour standards relevant to labour dispute resolution. The article illuminates and describes the bottlenecks in the current Kenyan system and argues that it does not adequately respond to the needs of parties in terms of the international labour conventions. A comparative approach with South Africa is adopted to see how independent institutions, such as the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration, Bargaining Councils and specialised Labour Courts can lead to effective dispute resolution. In view of that, a wide range of remedial intervention intended to address the gaps and flaws highlighted in the study are made. Systematically, the article provides suggestions and possible solutions for a better institutional framework and processes to address them.

Dispute Resolution System

ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution), as a non-judicial resolution of disputes, is a wide range of mechanisms that aim to put an end to a conflict without the need of conducting a trial before the court. On the other hand, the modern form of ADR is ODR (Online Dispute Resolution) – an online dispute resolution system that is the expression of the newest means of communication and technical innovations in order to help in non-judicial dispute resolving. The goal of this publication is to present the ODR platform and, in particular, to describe the process of filing a complaint by the consumer by means of it.
