Despite much having been written about what mediation is, direct
observations of commercial mediations are limited. This book grants
an opportunity to observe mediation in action and also provides
external commentary about the actions observed. The book approaches
Mediation ethnographically as a social process that is informed by
structures, rules and norms that colour the environment within
which it operates. Through the ethnographic method, a process
leading to negotiated order is examined, baring its elements,
identifying its influences and studying the movement to order. The
result is the reconceptualization of mediation. The mediator is
invited into the negotiation as third party intervener. He creates
the process of mediation, defining the process by his actions,
which ultimately merges mediator with process. This book provides a
window to the lived experience of participants to mediation: it
explores their understandings of and interactions within a process
they have experienced together and demonstrates how mediation is a
process inextricably linked to negotiation. The Fugitive Identity
of Mediation will be of interest to scholars, mediators, parties
who participate in the process, and to those active in public
policy discourse.
