Mediation and Arbitration

Write a paper that compares mediation and arbitration by explaining the

function, role, and effectiveness of each in resolving conflicts.

Further compare the two conflict resolution methods by discussing the

types of disputes that can be utilized by mediation and arbitration, and

include examples. Finally, explain the drawbacks to using each conflict

resolution method.

As part of this assignment, you must also visit the American Arbitration Association

seek to pursue.

The paper must be three to five pages in length (excluding the title and

reference pages) and formatted according to APA style. You must use at

least two scholarly resources (at least one of which can be found in the

Ashford University Library) other than the textbook to support your

claims and sub claims. Cite your resources in text and on the reference

page. For information regarding APA samples and tutorials, visit the Ashford Writing Center.
