How the Internet Challenges Dispute Resolution

* Book: Cyberhandshakes: How the Internet Challenges Dispute Resolution (...And Simplifies It). Francesca Musiani. EuroEditions,

Description

"The steadily increasing quantity and variety of Internet-based commercial activities worldwide calls for the development of innovative tools, codes and practices of dispute resolution. This work supplies the missing link between two visions of the Internet, as a venue for commercial transactions and as a tool in alternative dispute resolution proceedings, to suggest that the Internet's very features that are challenges the field of dispute settlement can become the primary key to solve, or at least simplify, these challenges. A special attention to the legal and social dimensions of the European space is paid as the study discusses the present and near future of dispute resolution mechanisms “for the Internet, via the Internet”."
