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.

For the past four decades, mediation practices have been steadily developing in Western societies, offering new ways for citizens to coexist peacefully. Unlike most works that focus on a single country or field, this book provides a comprehensive international overview of the development and implementation of mediation in all its forms. It explores the history and philosophy of mediation, outlines its ethical and professional principles, and presents the diverse models that guide practitioners.Departing from the dogmatic perspectives often found in the specialist literature, it proposes a flexible and adaptable approach to conflict that can be applied across a wide range of contexts—political, environmental, judicial, family, social, educational, commercial, and health.Through a socio-political and empirical lens, the book highlights the considerable promise of this non-violent method of conflict resolution, while also critically examining its dangers and limitations.
