Conceptualizing the Alternate Dispute Resolution Models in the Contemporary World
Abstract
This paper is based on the review of the literature available on the different models of alternate disputes resolutions working in the contemporary world. This ranges from advanced states like USA, China and developing countries like India, Philippine, Pakistan and Afghanistan. In most of the countries the ADRs working with two options i.e., the court annexed option and community-based dispute resolution. Both options have merits and de-merits but adopted in all over the countries. These models range from the simple negotiation to complex mechanism of mediation and other approaches adopted by the different communities in different countries. The paper also discussed the disputes resolution in the religion of Islam and Christianity.
Key words: ADR, Community based disputes resolution, informal justice.
