Cíle předmětu
This mini module has been designed specifically for students in the Faculty of Law, Masaryk University as part of the Erasmus Teaching Mobility Scheme. The aim of this module is to provide students with an introduction to the theory and practice of mediation. This module is distinctive in taking a socio-legal approach. To this end, students will acquire an understanding of the political debates surrounding the movement to (alternative) dispute resolution in the UK and Europe. We will compare attitudes to ADR across jurisdictions and examine the different legislative approaches to ADR. We will debate current issues such as the use of technology in ADR, the desirability of mandatory mediation, and the role of the trial today. An important feature of this module is that it examines the interface between theory and practice. As such, students will be asked to engage with scholarly critiques of mediation as well as doing practical exercises. This module reflects the increasing importance and popularity of ADR but acknowledges the problems, legal and political, that must be addressed to ensure just outcomes for disputants as well as broader society-wide benefits in reducing conflict and generating greater empathy. This module is for all law students, including (and perhaps particularly) those not intending to practice as lawyers.

For most seminars I have set core reading and further readings. Electronic links to the readings are provided in the Module Handbook. Students are asked to read at least the core reading prior to each seminar. The further reading is for student’s own interest and to extend your learning.
