Reimagining Igi Global Scientific Publishing Reimagining Mediation in a Global Context: Ethics, Power, and Emerging Paradigms in Conflict Resolution Hardcover

Evolving social, political, cultural, and technological realities challenge traditional approaches to conflict resolution. Mediation now emphasizes ethics, power dynamics, inclusivity, and cultural sensitivity. Global conflicts often involve unequal relationships, historical injustices, identity-based tensions, and transnational influences that require mediators to move beyond conventional frameworks of facilitation. Emerging paradigms in conflict resolution recognize the importance of restorative practices, transformative dialogue, indigenous knowledge systems, and digital mediation platforms in fostering sustainable peace. Further exploration may reveal how ethical considerations, power imbalances, and innovative approaches redefine the theory and practice of conflict resolution. Reimagining Mediation in a Global Context: Ethics, Power, and Emerging Paradigms in Conflict Resolution explores the transformations shaping mediation as both a discipline and a profession worldwide. It examines how mediation evolves, moving beyond neutrality to embrace emotional intelligence, ethics, and intercultural fluency, and investigates how mediators navigate identity, power, and technology in increasingly complex conflict environments. This book covers topics such as policymaking, global business, and ethics and law, and is a useful resource for business owners, sociologists, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
