Download or read book Global Trends in Mediation written by Nadja Marie Alexander and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In its first edition, Global Trends in Mediation was the first book to concentrate on mediation from a comparative perspective - reaching beyond the all-too-familiar Anglo-American view - and as such has enjoyed wide practical use among alternative dispute resolution (ADR) practitioners worldwide. This new edition has not only been updated throughout; it has also added two new jurisdictions (France and Quebec) and a very useful comparative table summarising the salient points from each of the fourteen jurisdictional chapters. Each jurisdictional chapter addresses critical structural and process issues in alternative dispute resolution such as the institutionalisation of mediation, mediation case law and legislation, the range and nature of disputes where mediation is utilised, court-related mediation, mediation practice standards, education, training and accreditation of mediators, the role of lawyers in mediation, online dispute resolution and future trends. All the contributors are senior dispute resolution academics or practitioners with vast knowledge and experience of dispute resolution developments in their countries and abroad.

This book was released on 2012-09-25T00:00:00+02:00 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il sistema della Giustizia minorile italiano è certamente riconosciuto, nel panorama internazionale, per la capacità di tutela del minore reo sia nella fase tratta mentale sia in quella propriamente processuale. Tuttavia, in questo contesto, peraltro molto avanzato, non si è ancora giunti ad una definizione normativa di uno degli strumenti più innovativi e più interessanti, quale quello della mediazione penale minorile. Questo lavoro vuole essere un primo tentativo di raccolta delle riflessioni e un confronto sulle esperienze nazionali, con uno sguardo attento e curioso alle prospettive internazionali.

Book Restorative Justice at a Crossroads

Download or read book Restorative Justice at a Crossroads written by Giuseppe Maglione and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-02-13 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reflects on the institutionalisation of restorative justice over the last 20 years and offers a critical analysis of the qualitative consequences generated by such a process on the normative structure of restorative justice, and on its understanding and uses in practice. Bringing together an international collection of leading scholars, this book provides a range of context-sensitive case studies that enhance our understanding of the development of international, national and institutional policy frameworks for restorative justice, the mainstreaming of practices within the criminal justice system, the proliferation of cultural, social and political co-optations of restorative justice and the ways in which the formalisation of the restorative justice movement have affected its values, aims and goals.

Book The Role of Fraternity in Law

Download or read book The Role of Fraternity in Law written by Adriana Cosseddu and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-05 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection discusses the concept of fraternity and examines the issue of its role in law. Since the end of World War II, fraternity has been cited in several national constitutional charters, in addition to the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights. But is there space for fraternity in law? The contributions to this book form an ideal “bridge” between the past and present to trace the different pathways taken to address the meaning of fraternity, and to identify its possible legal relevance. The book lays out paths that have placed fraternity in varied and challenging legal contexts in an age of globalization and conflict, where the multiplicity of national and supranational sources of law seems to show its inadequacy to govern complexity, and coexistence between diversities that appear irreconcilable. The purpose is not to recover fraternity as a forgotten principle, but to reimagine it today to address the aim and force of law within a plurality of cultures. The analysis considers a possible universal dimension that models unity within diversity, and aspires to serve as a prologue to a transition from research to dialogue between different legal systems and traditions. The book will be of interest to academics and researchers working in the areas of Comparative Law, Legal History and Legal Philosophy.

Book Penal Abolitionism and Transformative Justice in Brazil

Download or read book Penal Abolitionism and Transformative Justice in Brazil written by André R. Giamberardino and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-06-23 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Penal Abolitionism and Transformative Justice in Brazil discusses how penal abolitionism provides fundamental theoretical bases and practical references for the construction of a transformative justice in Brazil, supporting the claim that justice is a socially constructed conception and that victims do not unanimously stand for punishment. The book explores how the active participation of the protagonists of a conflict in a face-to-face negotiation of symbolic reparation, can produce a sense of justice without the need to punish or impose suffering on anyone. Mapping the ways that restorative justice in Brazil has distanced itself from the potential of transformative justice, to the extent that it fails to politicize the conflict and give voice to victims, the book shows how it has resulted in becoming just a new version of penal alternatives with correctionalist content. Moving away from traditional criminal justice language and also from conservative approaches to restorative justice, the author argues that the communicative potential of the transformative kind of redress can be dissociated from the unproved assumption that legal punishment is essential or even likely to achieve justice or deterrence. The arguments are grounded in the Brazilian reality, where life is marked by deep social inequalities and a high level of police violence. By providing a review of the literature on restorative justice, transformative justice, and abolitionism, the book contextualizes the abolitionist debate in Brazil and its history in the 19th century. Penal Abolitionism and Transformative Justice in Brazil is important reading for students and scholars who study punishment and penal abolitionism, to think about what it is possible to do in societies so deeply marked by social injustice and a history of oppression.

Book Sentencing and the Legitimacy of Trial Justice

Download or read book Sentencing and the Legitimacy of Trial Justice written by Ralph Henham and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-03-01 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the under-researched relationship between sentencing and the legitimacy of punishment. It argues that there is an increasing gap between what is perceived as legitimate punishment and the sentencing decisions of the criminal courts. Drawing on a wide variety of empirical research evidence, the book explores how sentencing could be developed within a more socially-inclusive framework for the delivery of trial justice. In the international context, such developments are directly relevant to the future role of the International Criminal Court, especially its ability to deliver more coherent and inclusive trial outcomes that contribute to social reconstruction. Similarly, in the national context, these issues have a vital role to play in helping to re-position trial justice as a credible cornerstone of criminal justice governance where social diversity persists. In so doing the book should help policy-makers in appreciating the likely implications for criminal trials of ‘mainstreaming’ restorative forms of justice. Sentencing and the Legitimacy of Trial Justice firmly ties the issue of legitimacy to the relevant context for delivering ‘justice’. It suggests a need to develop the tools and methods for achieving this and offers some novel solutions to this complex problem. This book will be a valuable resource for graduate students, academics, practitioners and policy makers in the field of criminal justice as well as scholars interested in socio-legal and cross-disciplinary approaches to the analysis of criminal process and sentencing and the development of theory and comparative methodology in this area.

Book La mediazione nel contesto europeo

Download or read book La mediazione nel contesto europeo written by Fabio Sacco and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-05-27 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fino all'approvazione del decreto legislativo 4 marzo 2010, n° 28 la Mediazione si presentava come uno strumento poco conosciuto nella realtà italiana sia da parte del semplice cittadino che da parte di molti professionisti. A partire dalla suddetta data la cultura della mediazione è cresciuta rapidamente, e ad oggi è possibile reperire, soprattutto sulla rete, molte informazioni utili sull'argomento. Ma in questa vastità di informazioni si corre il rischio di perdersi, soprattutto quando la ricerca ha come oggetto un argomento specifico della materia, come quello della mediazione in Europa. Lo scopo di questo libro è quello di raccogliere e posizionare in modo ordinato tutte le informazioni riguardanti la mediazione e inevitabilmente gli altri strumenti extragiudiziali di risoluzione delle controversie, per condurre il lettore ad una conoscenza chiara e corretta sulla posizione della Comunità Europea in merito alla questione.

Book Psychology and Law in a Changing World

Download or read book Psychology and Law in a Changing World written by Lara Bagnoli and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Criminal psychology, and its relationship to the practice of law, has become a topic of major significance over the last three decades. Psychologists play a key role in modern criminal investigation and are central to crime reduction measures such as offender profiling, delinquency prevention and tackling fear of crime. Contributors from North America, Europe and Australia examine this link, both adding to and drawing upon the pool of recent theory construction and empirical work in the following areas: * causes and prevention of offending * studies of crime and offenders * the victim's perspective * witnesses and testimony * studies of legal processes. These issues are studied from a 'local' perspective that recognises not only the need for cross-national comparative research, but also the generation of a corpus of scientific knowledge more representative of the complexity of criminal and legal investigation today.
