Power in Mediation: An Analysis of St. Stephen's Community House
نویسندگان
چکیده
Heralded as a tremendous breakthrough in dispute resolution2, the risk of mediation to subtly coerce3 and actually disempower disputants has not been adequately addressed. While mediation has been applauded for its informality, which allows for a quick, inexpensive and flexible process, this informality may also exacerbate or even create a power imbalance. Critics have suggested that the informal process of mediation may result in such negative outcomes as increased ethnic or racial prejudice4, cultural domination5, disempowerment for women6 and the facilitation of coercion and manipulation of weaker disputants.7
