Author Description

Contemporary Issues in Mediation (CIIM) Volume 6 builds on the success of the past five volumes as testament to a growing interest of authors and readers in the wide variety of issues that arise with mediation. Readers stand to benefit from a diverse range of topics especially selected for their high quality of research and novelty that cannot be replicated elsewhere. With the recent ratification of the Singapore Convention on Mediation in 2020, there is no doubt that mediation is and will continue to be extremely pertinent in the world of dispute resolution. The COVID-19 situation and evolution of technology has also heralded a new era of cross-border and domestic online dispute resolution. Edited by Singapore's leading expert on mediation and negotiation, Professor Joel Lee, and former Chief Executive Officer of the Singapore International Mediation Institute (SIMI), Marcus Lim, CIIM is a unique and valuable addition to the growing body of mediation and dispute resolution literature.
