Description
Summary:This chapter tells a story about mediation in Hong Kong - its past, present, and future. It is a story that reflects the internationality of Hong Kong as a place where East meets West, and the energy of the new is challenged by the wisdom of the old. It also sits comfortably with the notion of mediation itself, a conflict resolution process that appears both timeless and timely. This chapter explores the development of Hong Kong mediation and focuses on the regulatory landscape of mediation and common mediation practice areas. Finally, it identifies trends in mediation and the related area of apology legislation in Hong Kong.
