Overview
Key facts
London School of Economics and Political Science's Advanced Negotiation and Mediation course also considers adjudicative forms of dispute resolution (litigation and arbitration), and discusses how these relate to mediation and negotiation.
The focus of the course, which draws on insights from a range of academic disciplines including law, anthropology, psychology and economics, is on contemporary dispute resolution theories across a range of settings, including community, commercial, and retail/consumer.

The course aims to assist students in using theories of dispute resolution to understand and address contemporary debates as to how various methods should be used to settle claims in different contexts.The course will cover the dynamics of disputes, the forms of dispute resolution available - litigation, arbitration, negotiated settlement, and mediation - and how to determine the best choice of resolution system for your client.Programme Structure
