Download or read book Mediation written by Freddie Strasser and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2004-12-30 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about conflict resolution through mediation, from a psychological perspective. Although written in part from the point of view of litigation, the objective is to demonstrate how an appreciation of the psychological aspects of conflict and an understanding of the emotional strategies people adopt in dispute situations can assist both lawyers and non-lawyers in resolving conflicts. The book consists of three sections- a theoretical analysis of conflict and conflict resolution; a practical, legal and experiential explanation of mediation; and thirdly a series of mock mediations, comprehensively analysed from the viewpoint of the mediator and the parties, providing tips and guidance on the dilemmas and pitfalls that mediators encounter. The book is based on three fundamental tenets: that conflict is ever present, and cannot be eliminated but can be worked with; that the attitude and stance of the mediator towards the dispute can be of significance to the outcome; and above all that the use of psychotherapeutic tools can facilitate a paradigm shift in the parties' approach to conflict. The authors demonstrate how the mediator can move parties in dispute from a position of intransigent adversity to a working alliance, and thereby achieve a 'good enough ' resolution.

Book excerpt: "Divorce mediation offers mental health professionals and lawyers an effective way to help couples dissolve their marriages, minimizing the frustration and animosity commonly associated with the adversarial process. The rapid growth of divorce mediation centers is evidence of the need for specially trained professionals who can continue working with clients once the decision to divorce is made. This handbook will enable clinical psychologists, counselors, clergy, and social workers to expand their practice into this important field. Lawyers also will find the book useful in relating to divorce clients and to mediators. The author presents a model for helping couples negotiate mutually beneficial separation agreements while coping emotionally with divorce. He demonstrates how a mediator helps resolve key issues concerning the division of personal and real property, support, children, and plans for the future. He gives step-by-step guidelines for moving through the mediation process and illustrates this with nine case studies. Also included are a discussion of the special problems of children of divorcing couples, and appendixes containing a manual for clients and sample separation agreements." -- Jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This practical guide, with a foreword by Nobel Laureate Archbishop Desmond Tutu, will assist those interested in conflict resolution to better understand the psychological processes of parties in conflict and mediation. As Randolph argues, psychology is increasingly perceived by lawyers as a vital tool for resolving conflicts in the litigation environment, whether in commercial, family, community or employment disputes. With an ever-growing demand for mediators across international borders, the psychologically-informed mediator can also provide much needed facilitation in global trade and peace negotiations, as well as being invaluable in helping to resolve a variety of political and international conflicts.
Download or read book How Parties Experience Mediation written by Timea Tallodi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-22 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an unprecedented qualitative research study on relational changes in mediation with a truly interdisciplinary outset, drawing on the literature on psychology, alternative dispute resolution and business. Mediation's potential to induce changes in parties' relationships as an advantage of the process is commonly mentioned in the literature. However, despite its being a key to reconciliation, relational changes in mediation has not yet been a topic of foundational and fine-grained qualitative enquiry. As the first study in the literature, this research uses in-depth interviews with mediation parties and the qualitative methodology of interpretative phenomenological analysis in order to explore participants' lived experiences. The phenomenological stance ensures a particularly rich data set and a nuanced interpretative analysis. This pioneering piece of research seeks to enter mediation parties' true experiences as closely as possible, moving beyond pre-existing theoretical, quantitative and large-scale qualitative explorations. The themes are discussed in the context of theory, research and practice. Therefore, this book advances knowledge about mediation both in theoretical and practical terms. Innovative conclusions and recommendations are provided for developing mediation practice, mediation training programmes, and further research.
