Anyone who has mediated is likely to have experienced the magic of mediation and would very much like to do so again. But if asked where this magic came from, how it happened, what it consisted of, and how they might replicate it, most would be hard pressed to answer. To identify the sources of magic in mediation, we need to learn by metaphor from other disciplines and professions and search for ways of translating successful small-scale techniques into scale-free methodologies that can be applied to mid- and large-scale conflicts. We are actively creating wars, pandemics, and environmental conflicts that cannot be resolved or prevented except globally, collaboratively, and meditatively, using scaled-up, higher order dispute resolution skills. This is the core mission and calling of conflict resolvers around the world. And as these problems and conflicts have no borders, neither should our efforts to resolve them.Magic happens not only because of what we do, but who we are; in spite of everything the parties have said and done to each other, all their anguish and pain and trauma and loss, all their failed efforts and hopelessness. Why? Because we know, in our minds and hearts that magic is possible, and are ready to step into their hatred and fear and darkness and uncertainty, to search for it there. In mediation, we allow ourselves, for a moment, to become the magic they are seeking, merely because they do not yet understand that the magic is already inside and between them.

This book focuses on the decision of the Tribunal in the South China Sea Arbitration that China had operated its law enforcement vessels in ways that created risks of collision with Philippine official vessels at Scarborough Shoal in April and May 2012. The book explains the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS) and the incidents in layperson¿s terms. It analyzes Chinäs violations of the COLREGS on the basis of confidential Philippine documents declassified for the Arbitration, technical works by professional mariners, and the reports submitted by the navigational safety experts to the Tribunal. It pays attention to Chinese post-arbitration critiques of the Tribunal ¿s decision, which it characterizes as rationalizations of collisions as instruments of Chinese foreign policy. It contrasts Chinäs conduct with the practice of the US and Western European States, which mandate compliance with collision regulations even during law enforcement operations. The book draws on sources in five languages (English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish), and helps the reader understand the pattern of Chinäs harassment of vessels from littoral and non-littoral States in the South China Sea as well as the absence of legal foundations for Chinäs rationalizations of its behavior.Alfredo C.

This book provides a fresh perspective on resolving sovereign debt disputes within the investor-state mediation framework. In response to the limitations of traditional approaches to adjudicating public debt issues and the resulting gaps in international law concerning sovereign defaults, creditors have increasingly turned to investor-state treaty arbitrations to recover unpaid debts. However, this shift has raised numerous criticisms and concerns.Accordingly, this book explores the uncharted territory of utilizing mediation as a means to settle sovereign debt claims. It sheds light on the distinctive characteristics of mediation as a process, setting it apart from judicial litigation and private arbitration, and emphasizing the unique outcomes it can generate. The central argument of this book is that mediation should be seriously considered as a viable option for resolving sovereign debt disputes. Not only does it offer a more cost-effective and expeditious approach, but it also has the potential to facilitate economic recovery and sustain continued investment.

This book critically analyses the availability of environmental counterclaims in investment arbitration presented by the respondent host state against the claimant investor. It starts from the premise that the conflicting relation between investment law and environmental protection cannot always be avoided. Yet, the instrument of environmental counterclaims in investment arbitration might alleviate such relation. Throughout its chapters, this book addresses the questions about the societal and practical relevance of seeking redress for environmental damage in investment arbitration, the functioning of such instrument both in contract-based and treaty-based investment arbitration, the suitability of arbitral tribunals to rule upon environmental issues, and the kind of environmental damages that could be redressed. Most importantly, by deconstructing the requirements of jurisdiction, connection between main claim and counterclaim, and cause of action, this book provides the tools for there-conceptualisation of the instrument of counterclaims with the hope of harnessing its utility to achieve appropriate redress for environmental damages caused by foreign investors.

Combining the author's many years of legal practice experience, this book examines the current hot and difficult issues arising in the legal practice of foreign-related commercial disputes in China.

The book pays close attention to the latest legislative achievements of the international community and their impact on Chinese judicial practice, thus helping to strengthen exchanges and cooperation among countries along the ¿Belt and Road¿ and providing more effective rule of law protection for Chinese enterprises ¿going global¿.

Das private Kartellschadensersatzrecht rückte zuletzt in den Fokus der gerichtlichen Praxis und wissenschaftlichen Auseinandersetzung. Die Arbeit befasst sich mit einem der Dreh- und Angelpunkte von Kartellschadensersatzverfahren, der Bindungswirkung vorausgegangener Kartellbeschlüsse der Europäischen Kommission. In Auseinandersetzung mit Literatur und Judikative entwickelt die Autorin unter Berücksichtigung unionsverfassungsrechtlicher Anforderungen eigene Lösungsvorschläge hinsichtlich Inhalt, Umfang und Grenzen der Bindungswirkung und bestimmt diese anhand der klassischen Auslegungsmethoden. Ein Schwerpunkt liegt darin, die in der Praxis bedeutsame und umstrittene zivilrechtliche Haftung für Kartellrechtsverstöße innerhalb eines Konzernverbundes einer dogmatisch kohärenten Lösung zuzuführen.

Virtuelle Sitzungen und Beschlussfassungen haben für das Betriebsverfassungsrecht in den letzten Jahren immer mehr an Bedeutung gewonnen. Die hierdurch entfachte Diskussion über die Zulässigkeit und Umsetzung virtueller Beschlussfassungen mündete 2021 in der Aufnahme neuer Regelungen durch das BRModG. Die Autorin arbeitet zunächst die alte Rechtslage hinsichtlich der Zulässigkeit virtueller Beschlussfassungen im Betriebsverfassungsrecht auf, bevor sie auf die Umsetzung der neu aufgenommenen Regelungen eingeht. Ausgangspunkt ist die virtuelle Beschlussfassung des Betriebsrats nach den neuen Regelungen in § 30 II, III BetrVG. Ausgehend davon erörtert die Autorin zudem die Möglichkeit anderer betriebsverfassungsrechtlicher Organe, virtuelle Sitzungen und Beschlussfassungen wirksam durchzuführen. Dabei stehen insbesondere solche Organe im Fokus, die der Gesetzgeber bei der Aufnahme neuer Regelungen durch das BRModG außer Acht gelassen hat.

This book serves as a comprehensive study of and provides rich insight into non-market economy treatment, including its past, present, and estimated future practices and implications. It explores the introduction of the market and non-market economy dichotomy into international trade law. It traces the origin and development of non-market economy treatment against changing international economic and political background. The book examines this treatment in light of the rationale underlying anti-dumping, reflecting its alleged significance of ensuring fair trade. It in particular investigates the varied non-market economy treatment practices responding concerns of Chinäs rising as a large state-led economy, analyzing the deviation of NME treatment into an all-in trade tool. The book argues against preconceived bias and unilateral protectionism. It highlights the universal existence of government involvement in the market and proposes objective assessment of its impact on fair trade.Final proposition of the book is depoliticizing trade, reforming comprehensively international trade rules to carefully calibrate different values, including promoting fairness and enhancing global social welfare. It envisages a multi-dimension overhaul of international trade rules to rebalance trade interests, rather than roughly labeling an economy to confer different treatment, the practices of which lead to separation and chaos. The book is of particular relevance and interest to economies-in-transition, and among policy makers, academicians and legal practitioners engaged in trade remedies and trade rules reconstruction.

This book analyses the principle of equality from three perspectives: public international law, private international law and EU law. It is the first book in English providing a comprehensive overview of this principle in these areas of law and showing the current trends and issues concerning its application. Its main goal is to understand whether and to what extent the principle of equality has been affirmed in public and private international law, as well as EU law, and what - if any - the common core of this principle is.The analysis carried out in this contributed volume starts from general analyses of the principle of equality in the areas of the law covered by the book and then discusses the principle in more specific areas, such as human rights law, international adjudication (including investment law) and the law of international organizations.The book is intended to become a benchmark for academics dealing with matters of equality in public international law, private international law and EU law. It will be a useful tool for practitioners too, the collected chapters being based on the relevant case law dealing with the principle of equality.Daniele Amoroso is Professor of International Law in the Department of Law of the University of Cagliari, Cagliari, Italy.Loris Marotti is Assistant Professor of International Law in the Department of Law at the Federico II University of Naples, Italy.Pierfrancesco Rossi is Postdoctoral Fellow in International Law in the Department of Law of Luiss University, Rome, Italy.Andrea Spagnolo is Professor of International Law in the Department of Law of the University of Turin, Turin, Italy.Giovanni Zarra is Professor of International Law and International Litigation in the Department of Law at the Federico II University of Naples, Italy.

Korruption und Manipulationen im Sport sind so alt, wie der Sport selbst. In der jüngeren Vergangenheit scheint die Manipulation von Sportveranstaltungen aufgrund der globalen medialen Verknüpfung allerdings ein nicht nur beiläufiges Phänomen zu sein. Verdachtsfälle erstrecken sich mittlerweile auf sämtliche Sportarten und über Ländergrenzen hinweg. Hier stellt sich die Frage: Welche Maßnahmen können seitens des Gesetzgebers, der Sportverbände und -vereine ergriffen werden, um präventiv auf die Vermeidung von Manipulationen hinzuwirken? Der Verfasser unterzieht die geltenden Regeln und Maßnahmen am Beispiel des Fußballsports in unterschiedlichen Fallkonstellationen einer Bewertung und stellt dar, wo Präventionsmaßnahmen zur Steigerung der Effektivität sinnvoll implementiert werden können.

A restorative justice approach to addressing sexual misconduct in colleges and universities. Written for college and university practitioners and administrators, The Little Book of Restorative Justice for Campus Sexual Harms combines explanation, justification, and contextualization for the application of restorative justice for sexual misconduct, including for alleged Title IX violations. This book outlines considerations, action steps, and best practices for campuses who are interested in exploring the successful implementation of RJ for sexual misconduct. The opening chapter explores the “why,” while the final chapter examines the “how” of RJ for sexual harms and Title IX for college and university campuses. The authors' backgrounds as practitioners within the higher education context grounds this work with personal reflections, experiences, and stories.  The 2020 passage of the Final Rule of Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972 redesigned the law, ceding extensive authority to individual educational institutions to customize their approach to Title IX compliance. While some argue that the Final Rule may leave students less safe, there are now emergent opportunities, as federal Title IX regulations have also made allowances for the augmentation of investigative/adjudicatory Title IX processes with additional “informal” resolution options. These options can be designed to more specifically and appropriately address the harms, meet the needs, and attend to resultant obligations for those involved in situations of campus sexual misconduct. This book provides a primer for colleges and universities who seek to move campus culture in a more restorative direction generally, and specifically for practitioners interested in exploring the possibility of amending existing sexual misconduct policies, including investigative/ adjudicatory Title IX policy and procedures, through a restorative justice informed adaptive lens. Readers will explore why it makes all the difference (both for students and administrators) to add adaptive resolution options, from both cognitive and moral development standpoints, and for purely practical reasons.
