Students will engage in the study of Community Based Dispute Resolution Programs. This course will explore the relationship between community, in which the program has developed, and the dispute resolution system. It will also examine how these processes have been affected by the absorption of mediation and other conflict resolution practices in the legal system. Under the supervision of the course instructor, students will engage in an original research and writing project that evaluates and critiques a community based dispute resolution program. Prerequisite(s): DISR 500, DISR 510, and DISR 516.
