Während Mediation als eine exzellente Methode zur Beilegung bereits bestehender Streitigkeiten hinreichend bekannt ist, kann sie sich gerade als Mittel der Konfliktvermeidung als zumindest genauso nützlich erweisen. Obwohl Mediation in dieser Weise noch nicht breitenwirksam eingesetzt wird, sprechen starke Argumente dafür, Mediation nicht nur als Alternative zu etablierten Streitbeilegungsmethoden einzusetzen, sondern sie gezielt als frühes und vorbeugendes Mittel im Bereich des Deal Making zu nutzen. Dieser Beitrag zielt darauf ab, die Vorteile von Mediation in nicht-konventionellen Bereichen und gerade im Zusammenhang mit Deal Making und Deal Management hervorzueheben, und damit ihre weiterreichende Nutzung und Weiterentwicklung zu fördern.

In the last four decades, Malaysian jurists and Sharî’ah scholars have immensely contributed to the field of Islamic finance sufficient to attract international recognition and acceptance. This has turned Malaysia to a vibrant global hub for Islamic financial services. In furtherance of this enviable position, a new legal framework was recently introduced which is expected to reemphasize the pragmatic and resilient nature of the Islamic finance industry. This paper therefore provides a judicial perspective on the recent reforms in the legal framework of Islamic finance industry, examines the dynamics of Islamic finance litigation, and highlights the important role of the judiciary and other dispute resolution institutions in shaping the future of the industry. In Malaysia, the nature of the trading concepts, upon which the Islamic finance facilities are based, are the major sources of disputes since the Islamic finance industry operates within a conventional framework and related disputes are litigated in the civil courts. It is therefore argued that the biggest challenge for the courts in the exercise of its judicial function is the application of relevant laws to Islamic finance transactions. The paper concludes that strengthening the legal architecture of the industrywill necessarily lead to the development of competitive products that are not only Sharî’ah-compliant but alsoconventionally viable. This can be achieved through the channelling of Islamic finance disputes to an alternative forum for appropriate dispute resolution. ABSTRAKDalam empat dekad yang lalu, cendekiawan Malaysia dan pakar Syariah telah memberi sumbangan yang besar kepada bidang kewangan Islam yang cukup bagi menarik pengiktirafan dan penerimaan antarabangsa. Ini telah menjadikan Malaysia suatu hab global bertenaga untuk perkhidmatan kewangan Islam. Bagi meneruskan kedudukan yang dicemburui ini, satu rangka kerja undang-undang baru telah diperkenalkan baru-baru ini yang diharap lebih menekankan kepada lumrah pragmatik dan berdaya tahan industri kewangan Islam. Oleh itu, kertas kerja ini memberikan perspektif kehakiman terhadap pembaharuan mutakhir dalam rangka kerja undang undang industri kewangan Islam, mengkaji dinamik litigasi kewangan Islam, dan menjelaskan peranan penting badan kehakiman dan institusi-institusi penyelesaian pertikaian yang lain dalam membentuk masa depan industri ini. Di Malaysia, lumrah konsep perdagangan, yang mana menjadi dasar kemudahan kewangan Islam, adalah punca utama pertikaian sejak industri kewangan Islam beroperasi di dalam rangka kerja konvensional dan pertikaian berkaitan telah dilitigasikan di mahkamah sivil. Maka ia telah dibahaskan bahawa cabaran terbesar bagi mahkamah pada menjalankan fungsi kehakimannya adalah aplikasi undang-undang yang berkaitan dengan urus niaga kewangan Islam. Kertas kerja ini menyimpulkan bahawa pengukuhan rangka kerja undang-undang industri akan membawa kepada pembangunan produk yang berdaya saing yang bukan sahaja patuh Syariah tetapi juga berdaya maju dari sudut konvensionalnya. Ini boleh dicapai melalui penyaluran pertikaian kewangan Islam kepada forum alternatif untuk penyelesaian pertikaian yang sesuai.

AbstractBased on the insights from the previous chapters in this volume, this concluding chapter discusses key traits of Nordic courts: colloquial legal language, generalist judges, ‘unrefined’ and fragmentary laws, high trust in the state and judges, and corporatism. The development of these traits over time is explored as well as the emergence of new traits that could be labelled ‘Nordic’. It also discusses how two current trends—Europeanisation and privatisation of dispute resolution processes—influence Nordic courts. The question whether a unified Nordic procedural culture still exists is raised. Finally, the future of Nordic courts is discussed.

In his reply to Rosemary Rayfuse's article, "The Future of Compulsory Dispute Settlement under the Law of the Sea Convention", Andrew Serdy addresses some of the criticisms that have been levelled at the Part XV dispute resolution provisions of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). He concludes that despite being little used, the Part XV provisions remain pivotal to UNCLOS and its related treaties, and if anything are becoming more so

Customary inheritance dispute might occur when the heirs cannot reach agreement between divisions of property or during inheritance law point which will be used. Indonesia acknowledges 3 existing inheritance laws which are western civil inheritance law, Moslem’s inheritance law, and customary inheritance law. Legal action of inheritance law is usually resolved by deliberation but if there is no agreement reached between these processes, therefore court mechanism can be used to make law suit and dispute resolution. UU No 3 of 2006 about religious jurisdiction is a legal product that is issued to provide improvement (Amendment) against UU No 7 of 1989 about religious jurisdiction. UU No 3 of 2006 is giving significant impact against the existence of custom inheritance law in Indonesia. Before this constitution is created, religious jurisdiction can accept customary inheritance disputes for Moslem people according to the criteria which have been stated in UU No 7 of 1989. Since UU No 3 of 2006 is created, therefore customary inheritance law, even though the heirs are Moslem, must follow the district court mechanism. This will provide increasingly narrow space for the existence of customary law in the future. This program is held in Pati, Central Java, where custom inheritance law still exists and is being used in Pati community. Dissemination and harmonization regarding customary law is important to maintain sustainability and existence of customary law in Indonesia.
