Mediation, Conciliation, and Emotions: The Role of Emotional Climate in Understanding Violence and Mental Illness, the revised edition of the groundbreaking Mediation, Conciliation, and Emotions: A Practitioner’s Guide to Understanding Emotions in Dispute Resolution, discusses the under-researched topic of emotional climate, and emphasizes the importance of considering climate or environment when trying to understand violence and mental illness, as well as its impact on our society. Ladd and Blanchfield describe how an effective mediator, conciliator, or peacemaker should approach these conflicts. New features include updated references, a discussion of contemporary violence and mental health, and comparisons between culture and climate when determining how conflicts evolve into violent acts.

Download and read online ebook Mediation & Popular Culture write by Jennifer L. Schulz. This book was released on 2020-03-09. Mediation & Popular Culture available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. This book examines mediation topics such as impartiality, self-determination and fair outcomes through popular culture lenses. Popular television shows and award-winning films are used as illustrative examples to illuminate under-represented mediation topics such as feelings and expert intuition, conflicts of interest and repeat business, and deception and caucusing. The author also employs research from Australia, Belgium, Canada, China, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, India, Israel, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States of America to demonstrate that real and reel mediation may have more in common than we think. How mediation is imagined in popular culture, compared to how professors teach it and how mediators practise it, provides important affective, ethical, legal, personal and pedagogical insights relevant for mediators, lawyers, professors and students, and may even help develop mediator identity.

The Possibility of Popular Justice available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. "The Possibility of Popular Justice is essential reading for scholars and practitioners of community mediation and should be very high on the list of anyone seriously concerned with dispute resolution in general. The book offers many rewards for the advanced student of law and society studies." --Law and Politics Book Review "These immensely important articles--fifteen in all--take several academic perspectives on the [San Francisco Community Boards] program's diverse history, impact, and implications for 'popular justice.' These articles will richly inform the program, polemical, and political perspectives of anyone working on 'alternative programs' of any sort." -- IARCA Journal "Few collections are so well integrated, analytically penetrating, or as readable as this fascinating account. It is a 'must read' for anyone interested in community mediation." --William M. O'Barr, Duke University "You do not have to be involved in mediation to appreciate this book. The authors use the case as a launching pad to evaluate the possibilities and 'impossibilities' of building community in complex urban areas and pursuing popular justice in the shadow of state law." --Deborah M. Kolb, Harvard Law School and Simmons College Sally Engle Merry is Professor of Anthropology, Wellesley College.
