ADR covers a variety of devices which are not static. Indeed, they continue to expand as society gains a better appreciation of the nature of disputes. So, from the traditional methods of dispute resolution,1 society is reorganising more and more of those processes which attempt, first and foremost, to reconcile the interests of the parties. A rights determination and a power resolution are involved only as a fallback in case of a failure in reconciling interests. Many processes or devices claim a place under the chapeau of ADR.
At the beginning of the spectrum, the parties are in full control of the process. As we move from negotiation to mediation, we find that the process involves a neutral third party who does not have the power to impose a binding decision. By the time arbitration, administrative hearing or a trial is reached in the spectrum, a neutral third party makes a binding decision for the parties. These processes in the spectrum are often arranged to correlate with increasing costs and third party involvement, decreasing control of the parties over the process and, usually, increasing likelihood of having the relationship between the disputants deteriorate during and after the resolution of the dispute.
