Mediation is seen as a process of intervention distinct from legal, social work and therapeutic practice, drawing on a distinctive body of knowledge across disciplinary fields including anthropology, psychology and negotiation theory. Incorporating empirical evidence, the book emphasizes the value of mediation in mitigating the harmful effects of family breakdown and conflict. - - First published in 1988 as a pioneering work, this third edition has been fully updated to incorporate legal and policy developments in the UK and in Europe, new sociological and philosophical perspectives on respect, justice and conflict, and international research and practice innovations. -Dispute resolution (Law)Great BritainFamily mediationGreat BritainDispute resolution (Law)Family mediation346.4101/5Roberts Marian1687555MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910811129303321Mediation in family disputes4069714UNINA
