The Magic in Mediation: A Search for Symmetries, Metaphors and Scale-Free Practices- By Professor Kenneth Cloke

Published by Dr Chinwe Egbunike-Umegbolu
#expertviewsonadrvidpodcastshow #whatadrbookareyoureading #kencloke
Anyone who has mediated is likely to have experienced the magic of mediation and would very much like to do so again. But if asked where this magic came from, how it happened, what it consisted of, and how they might replicate it, most would be hard pressed to answer.
To identify the sources of magic in mediation, we need to learn by metaphor from other disciplines and professions and search for ways of translating successful small-scale techniques into scale-free methodologies that can be applied to mid- and large-scale conflicts. We are actively creating wars, pandemics, and environmental conflicts that cannot be resolved or prevented except globally, collaboratively, and meditatively, using scaled-up, higher order dispute resolution skills. This is the core mission and calling of conflict resolvers around the world. And as these problems and conflicts have no borders, neither should our efforts to resolve them.
Magic happens not only because of what we do, but who we are; in spite of everything the parties have said and done to each other, all their anguish and pain and trauma and loss, all their failed efforts and hopelessness. Why? Because we know, in our minds and hearts that magic is possible, and are ready to step into their hatred and fear and darkness and uncertainty, to search for it there. In mediation, we allow ourselves, for a moment, to become the magic they are seeking, merely because they do not yet understand that the magic is already inside and between them.

It’s a wrap! Incredible session with Dr Anita Dorczak #happythanksgiving

Published by Dr Chinwe Egbunike-Umegbolu

 

It’s a wrap! I had an incredible podcast session with one of my favourite mentors from the American Bar Association (ABA) Section of Dispute Resolution, the intelligent and amiable Dr Anita Dorczak. I am grateful to have had this opportunity, and it was a highly productive and enlightening conversation.

We thoroughly analysed how collaborative law has significantly impacted access to justice in Canada. We also explored the future of legal research through podcasting, with a strong focus on Appropriate/Alternative Dispute Resolution, amongst other questions.

Dr. Anita really caught me off guard! (She asked me a question) I can’t wait to share this episode! Have a super chill Thanksgiving; make sure to eat lots of good food and enjoy time with your loved ones!

I appreciate your support through subscribing, sharing, and downloading each episode. It means a lot to me.

The interview on ADR and Collaborative Law with Ana Luiza Etchalus is a must-listen. We covered a lot on ADR in Brazil and had a great time doing it. We took a selfie – a first for EVA! Towards the end of the interview, we discussed the cultural affinity between Brazilians and Nigerians/Africans, which was quite educative and interesting. I can’t wait to share it!
