This book was released on 2022-02-15 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global Trends in Dispute Resolution Series, Volume 11 It can be said that negotiation is about what to do, whereas mediation is about how to do it—how to make sure control is in the hands of the disputants. Although mediation (as well as conciliation) is taking hold in dispute resolution worldwide, among the nations, India shows the strongest signs of interest in developing a pervasive legal mediation culture. In this invaluable book, more than 20 formidable thought leaders with global reputations in dispute resolution describe how mediation is used, and can be used, to resolve different types of disputes in India and international cases. With a focus throughout on the law and procedure applicable to conciliation and mediation in India—addressing the involvement of each of the stakeholders in the process (with relevant hints on practice)—the contributors examine such issues and topics as the following: mediator ethics; court-annexed mediation; institutional mediation; mediating commercial disputes; mediating company, insolvency, and bankruptcy disputes; mediating government disputes; mediating investor-state disputes; mediating family disputes; e-mediation; community mediation and citizen empowerment; mixed-mode dispute resolution; and cross-border enforcement of mediated settlements. Two practice-oriented chapters synthesize the process, techniques, and approaches that experienced mediators and mediation advocates have found to be most valuable in their preparation for a mediation. Included is a detailed commentary on Part III of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act 1996 and the 2018 Singapore Convention on Mediation. There is little doubt that mediation is the dispute resolution choice of the next-generation lawyer. Present-day lawyers, judges, and users are becoming increasingly convinced that early conflict resolution through facilitated negotiations avoids the pitfalls of adversarial modes of dispute resolution, especially in terms of user satisfaction. This book takes into account where India stands at present, covering statutes, international conventions, and academic literature, thus bequeathing a broad understanding of the subject for legal practitioners, judges, arbitrators, mediators and conciliators, users, and technical experts who wish to understand it.

Download or read book Alternative Dispute Resolution written by Shashank Garg and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2018-01-09 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alternative dispute resolution (ADR), as a mechanism to resolve disputes, has gained wide acceptance in India. This is primarily because the traditional adversarial system of dispensing justice is dilatory, expensive, and, many a time, ineffective. The recent spurt in India's economic development coupled with the renewed confidence of foreign investors to invest in India has also made it imperative that India provides a swifter justice delivery system to resolve commercial disputes. The volume examines some of the important aspects of dispute resolution being practiced in India. More than twenty national and international experts from various fields within the domain of dispute resolution have come together to answer some of the most complex issues and shed light on the usage of the best practices of dispute resolution in India. The work aims to enhance the understanding of the legal issues related to dispute resolution, and provides an updated account of law incorporating the recent Arbitration and Conciliation (Amendment) Act, 2015.

The key features of this book are as follows: • In the introduction, the current scenario of construction sector has been discussed, along-with the problems faced by them and its impact on country’s growth/GDP. • [Delay Analysis Report] Project finalization & execution has also been briefly addressed, along with detailed description of possible reasons of conflicts and disputes in large projects.

And any reader can find that “something” only after studying the book. It is a must read for the students, practitioners and academicians involved in the field. I so recommend as the author is consistently guided by the motto, “quality speaks for itself”. The author’s intention is to assist and educate. I have deliberately used both the words because I am of the view that this book should be read by some with the vision of an Argus-eyed personality and some should study with humility. The author deals with many facets with admirable precision. One may consider his delineation with regard to the conception of delay. He has commandedly adverted to “Common Causes of delay in EPC Projects”. I am certain that anyone arguing a matter before a Tribunal or Court will be extremely benefitted. The author’s case study has its own impact and reaffirms the old saying “Example is better than Precept”. He believes in the concept “successful project execution is more than a written piece of contract”. This statement by Dr. Saraswat deserves to be a quotation. Reviewed by Justice B.B. Srikrishna | Former Judge | Supreme Court of India Dr. S.B. Saraswat is a technocrat with extensive experience of four decades in public as well as private sector industries in India and abroad. He was actively involved in successful execution of many large projects in Steel, Power and Petroleum sectors. His long experience in their execution has exposed him to various kinds of disputes faced as client and as contractor. This book is the result of his rich experience of dispute resolution by arbitration in the construction industry and reflects his insights on aspects of delays, disputes & their resolution. Apart from general discussion of the arbitral mechanics in such disputes, the book focusses on the nature of construction contracts, the likely pitfalls therein, the force majeure clauses in such contracts, project control and monitoring, common causes of delay in EPC contracts, delay analysis techniques, techniques of ADR, nature of claims, their submission and the evidence required to substantiate the claims in light of the legal provisions of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 and other applicable laws. Reviewed by Justice Deepak Verma | Former Judge | Supreme Court of India This book by Dr. S.B. Saraswat encapsulates the following: • The problems of the construction sector and their impact has been analyzed in detail. • First it has been advised that disputes should be resolved mutually among stakeholders failing which mediation and conciliation should be adopted. Procedures for the same have been described in the book. • It is a fact that large construction projects in India are invariably delayed due to a variety of reasons. This book contains all the possible reasons for the delay in the project. Further, the book also spells out an action plan to avoid such delays. • The book has handled the delay analysis through various delay techniques normally adopted as a standard practice. Delay in the projects has been described in a comprehensible manner that can be easily understood by lawyers, arbitrators and laymen working in the construction industry. • The book also analyses 10(ten) case studies while attempting to cull out the necessary principles involved in the execution of the projects. • Preparation of claims has been dealt with in the book and explained with suitable examples. • Utility of evidences to substantiate the claims have been incorporated. • The book discusses ADR techniques like Negotiation, Mediation, Conciliation and Arbitration to resolve construction disputes. Reviewed by Justice A.K. Sikri | Former Judge | Supreme Court of India Understanding the need to have some authentic book to guide and help all the stakeholders, Dr. S.B. Saraswat has laboured to produce the book at hand which specifically takes care of issues relating to construction arbitration. The three major elements in this field as mentioned above, viz., delays in such projects, nature of disputes and the resolution thereof through arbitration are the themes which are very deftly articulated and presented in a manner which can easily be absorbed by the readers. A distinguished feature of the book is that the scope is not confined to use of ADR mechanisms for dispute resolution (which includes mediation as well as arbitration), but contains an in- depth analysis into the causes leading to such disputes. This becomes important to ensure ‘Dispute Avoidance’, wherever possible. In case of disputes, the book acts as a helpful guide for the disputants in the manner in which claims should be preferred or the defences be offered. It also guides the stakeholders the manner in which evidence needs to be organised or supporting the claims or defending the claims.

Download or read book Commercial Mediation written by Seema Yadav and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Commercial mediation in India was brought to life in 1996 when the Indian Parliament modified the Civil Procedure Code (CPC) and adopted section 89 that empowered the courts to settle disputes through mediation along with other means. This legislation regulates mediation in India's court system. The Arbitration and Conciliation Act (ACA) was also introduced in 1996. The ACA's rules regulate private mediation in India. The primary manner of mediation is evaluative. Contracting parties seem to prefer having an authority figure as the mediator, and being guided quite confidently in the mediation rather than being completely hands-off. This is a very common cultural characteristic in Asia. The sides expect the mediator to lend them his or her view of their case's vulnerability and actively participate in finding answers; indeed, they would be frustrated if they felt the mediator was not fully involved in solving the dispute with them. The emphasis is on privileges, as well as freedoms. Most mediators tend to be supportive. It is rare to mediate transformative.Recently, Parliament of India approved the High Court (Amendment) Act 2018 ("Law"),providing “Commercial Courts, Commercial Division and Commercial Appellate Division” on August 10, 2018. In a potentially significant change, Section 12A of the Act stipulates compulsory per-institution mediation, i.e. the plaintiff is required to explore the mediation procedure prior to filing a litigation in compliance with the 2018 Commercial Court “(Pre-Institution Mediation and Settlement) Rules ” unless the litigation calls for any immediate temporary relief under the parent Commercial Courts Act, 2015.

Download or read book Uniform Civil Code for India written by Shimon Shetreet and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-06-18 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Article 44 of The Constitution of India, provides that 'The State shall endeavour to secure for the citizens a Uniform Civil Code throughout the territory of India.' Even after more than six decades, this anticipated code has not been developed or implemented. This book provides a blueprint for alternative frameworks and courses of action, drawing on lessons from comparative context to develop a Uniform Civil Code for India. It explores the interplay between issues of law, culture, and religion in light of various intra-community and inter-community disputes. The book proposes a series of guidelines and considerations to inform this process. The first guideline urges that the process of preparing and implementing a Uniform Civil Code should be the function of the Legislature. The Courts can resolve certain specific points but the comprehensive code is a legislative function and not for judicial resolution. The second guideline suggests the parallel application of civil and religious law. The securing of a Uniform Civil Code must not negate the possibility of citizens availing themselves of religious law-if they so wish. The third guideline advises a gradual application of a Uniform Civil Code. The development of the code should be done topic by topic, chapter by chapter. The fourth guideline is to deploy tools of mediation in both the formation of the code and its implementation. This mediation should take on two forms—intercommunity mediation and individual mediation. The first of these two relates to a dialogue between the communities of India, to advance an agreement upon the substantive provisions of the Uniform Civil Code. The second relates to mediation between individuals, in occasions where dispute arises in the realm of personal law.
