Alternative means to just ends

Abstract: When commercial and personal agreements break down, the courts can be asked to decide how the dispute will be resolved. However, for many parties the court process is not ideal. Lukas Schroeter explores how voluntary alternative dispute-resolution (ADR) methods have evolved in response to some of the shortcomings of court processes - and have provided choices and potential increases in welfare for the adversaries. Greater access to and use of ADR thus offers not only more-satisfied disputants but also an alternative means of reducing high workloads and long waiting lists in the civil courts.
