Lars Kirchhoff, Nadja Alexander (EDT) Constructive Interventions

Annotation

In the contemporary discipline of conflict resolution, adjudication and alternative dispute resolution (ADR) are often seen as antagonistic trends. This important book contends that, on the contrary, it is the bringing together of these trends that holds the most promise for an effective system of international justice. With great insight and passion, built firmly on a vast knowledge of the field, Lars Kirchhoff exposes the contemporary structural barriers to effective conflict resolution, defining where adjudication ends and ADR eE ' and particularly the recent development of mediated third party intervention from an eE -arteE - to a veritable eE -scienceeE - eE ' must come into play.
