Mediating Justice: Legal Dispute Negotiations, 2nd Edition provides the most comprehensive, practical, and theoretical framework for mediating disputes over rights in Canada. One of the unique features of this book is that it brings together, in one source, all of the multi-disciplinary literature on negotiation and mediation in the important context of conflicts over rights. The central theme is the power of authentic "talk" and "listening" in the resolution of our most difficult disputes.

The author provides strategic advice on the best dispute resolution practices and the role of lawyers and law in legal dispute negotiations. Practitioners will develop an enhanced understanding of the dynamics of dispute resolution and the tailoring of facilitative practices to particular disputes or barriers for successful interventions.

This resource was written for lawyers, mediators, and other conflict resolution professionals, such as human resource practitioners, judges, and tribunal members. As well, particular attention was also paid to law students.

What's included:

• An update of the most recent multi-disciplinary literature on dispute resolution in one accessible source;
• An analysis of a wide range of cutting-edge techniques for intervening in legal disputes, particularly those that are emotional or involving many parties;
• Extensive updates on the role of emotions, ethics, and on-line technology in conflict resolution;
• Descriptions of the practice routines of experienced negotiators and mediators in preparing to intervene;
• A review of new and evolving mediation theories; and
• An analysis of recent developments in the law pertaining to the confidentiality of mediated settlement discussions.

About the Author
The Honourable George W. Adams, Q.C. is one of Canada's most experienced professional mediators. He is an award winning author as well as a former superior court judge, law professor, agency head, senior bureaucrat, and legal practitioner. He has used Mediating Justice to educate law students at the University of Toronto School of Law in negotiation theory and practice and to provide mediation training to senior administrative tribunal members and lawyers.

Dubbed the "guru" of mediation by the National Post, Adams has mediated in a vast range of legal conflict situations. In 1997 he resigned from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, in a rare instance of a judge stepping down from the bench to establish a neutral dispute resolution practice.

This is the first and only publication to provide comprehensive coverage of national laws on conflict of laws, now more commonly referred to as private international law. It presents country-by-country monographs dealing with the statutes, regulations and case law each country applies to cases involving transnational issues. It offers much-needed access to the conflict rules of other countries, presented clearly and concisely by local experts. The looseleaf format allows the monographs to be kept regularly up to date.

Beginning with a general introduction to the private international law of the country concerned, each monograph goes on to discuss choice of law technique, sources of private international law, intangible property rights, marriage, registered partnerships, property, succession and much more. Each national monograph concludes with an overview of the country's relevant civil procedure, examining lex fori, enforcement of foreign judgments and international arbitration.

The world is getting smaller and increasingly interdependent every day. As a result, national and regional developments are, as a matter of necessity, seen in a global framework. States want to preserve their independence but they are confronted with a growing list of problems which they can only solve in co-operation with others. The sheer scale of the issues at stake calls for an institutional framework to give that co-operation a more permanent structure.

It is therefore appropriate in the framework of the International Encyclopaedia of Laws to make accessible comprehensive, substantial and readily available information on the most important intergovernmental organizations, given their importance for the development of international law and intergovernmental co-operation in general. The fundamental changes taking place nowadays at an incredible pace within IGOs render it all the more necessary to put this information within easy reach. Some 55 leading organizations will be described in separate monographs of approximately 150 pages each.

Family and succession law are tightly bound together. Succession law is usually based on kindred relationships as established by family law. The trends established in the marital property laws and succession laws are often a result of developments in family law.

Equality of spouses and of all children, regardless of their descent, is not without consequences for marital property laws and succession law. Therefore, this comprehensive comparative looseleaf set covers family law together with marital property law and succession law. In addition to the national monographs this subset of the International Encyclopaedia of Laws currently includes a monograph for the European Union.

This set is primarily intended for judges, notaries, lawyers and registrars of civil status who find themselves having to apply foreign laws as a result of applicable international private law.

The complex law surrounding energy production and the exploitation of natural resources has reached the legal foreground both nationally and internationally. Numerous countries have enacted new legislation in recent years concerning nuclear power generation, the use of non-renewable resources, transportation of hazardous materials and other issues raised by energy production processes.

Other branches of law have inevitably become bound up with energy law, making it difficult for the legal practitioner to gain a clear appreciation of the entire field, especially in a transnational context.

Each national monograph in this book contains a general introduction, a description of the country's energy legislation, an overview of the basic principles of energy law, the historical background, the role of governmental institutions and the sources of energy law in that country's legal system. Each country's regulatory framework concerning electricity, gas, petrol and coal is fully set forth.

The introduction of new digital information and communications technologies has given birth to a new legal domain, commonly called Information and Communication Technology Law or, more fashionably, Cyber Law.

Practically every country in the world has issued specific legislation or developed case law in this area. The domain has acquired sufficient stability to fit into a common structure and a logical consequence of this evolution is the publication of an International Encyclopaedia of Cyber Law. The initial volume contains information about cyber laws in Australia, Hong Kong, Cyprus, Greece, Ireland, Japan, UK, Portugal, South Africa and Spain. Other countries will be incorporated as the work matures. As well as national monographs, it includes monographs on supranational and international cyber law issues.

Optimising the outcome of disputes connected with international business forms the subject matter of International Arbitration and Mediation: A Practical Guide.

Rather than adopt an idealised approach of pursuing victories at any cost, the authors help parties predict the realistic consequences (and costs) of their decisions and provide a step-by-step guide to opportunities to influence the course of a dispute as it unfolds in its various stages. They discuss techniques for productively resolving disputes through negotiation, mediation, and arbitration, frequently illustrating critical steps through real-world examples drawn from past experiences.

The book is intended as an easily accessible desktop resource for lawyers who regularly counsel businesses when negotiating international deals, and for those who represent the same clients in achieving a successful resolution when disputes emerge.

The practical guidance includes:

• How to determine which dispute resolution clauses work best for different international contracts, and how to negotiate those clauses
• What preliminary steps parties should consider to preserve their rights when a dispute arises
• Whether and how to appoint counsel
• When and how to perform an early case assessment (ECA)
• How to organise and conduct international mediations and arbitration proceedings
• How to enforce (or set aside) arbitral awards
• Securing the benefit of additional protections available through investment treaties

The text is divided into chapters that follow the life cycle of an international commercial dispute as seen through the eyes of the parties, from when they agree how to resolve disputes in their contracts to the endgame of enforcement. Additionally, the appendices include a number of model submissions for further reference.

A collection of Problem-Based Learning cases designed to reinforce principles taught in forensic accounting/auditing courses throughout the United States.

Each case:

1. lays out the basic principles and parameters of analysis to be applied in uncovering and proving fraudulent activity in domestic and/or international operations;
2. provides a fact pattern and supporting documentation that allow students to not only uncover illegal activity, but also to prove such fraud in a court of law under American rules of evidence and courtroom procedure;
3. is designed for students to perform forensic investigation, alone or in teams, with the instructor serving as a facilitator; and
4. includes secondary documents that either corroborate the superficial accounting information initially provided or reveal anomalies and discrepancies pointing to who, what, when, where, how, and why.
