Sommer. 330 $a"This book provides a vivid reader on experiences of mediation throughout history and in many different regional, cultural and legal contexts. For experts in the field of mediation and legal anthropology it provides a series of fascinating case studies not previously reported on. For those not familiar with the field it provides a window on an alternative possibility for peacemaking in political conflicts. The book is held together by the editor's introduction, which defines political mediation, the research methodologies employed, the relationship of mediation to participatory democracy, and the growth of mediation in the past twenty years. The chapters which follow provide the anatomy of successful and unsuccessful mediations in contexts as widely diverse as the 30 Years War (1618-1648) which was ended following the intercession of the future Pope, Alexander VII. Three further chapters examine the role of the Catholic Church in other mediations - in the Basque conflict, in Burundi and in Chiapas, while a further group of chapters looks at conflicts in Ethiopia, Northern Ireland, Central America and Congo."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 410 0$aOnati international series in law and society. 606 $aDispute resolution (Law)$xHistory$vCase studies 606 $aMediation, International$xHistory$vCase studies 606 $aSocial conflict$xHistory$vCase studies 606 $2International law 615 0$aDispute resolution (Law)$xHistory 615 0$aMediation, International$xHistory 615 0$aSocial conflict$xHistory 676 $a341.52 702 $aFaget$b Jacques 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819588203321 996 $aMediation in political conflicts$94025071 997 $aUNINA
