On March 4th, 2022, the Texas A&M Law Review and the Aggie Dispute Resolution Program (law.tamu.edu/ADR) hosted a symposium entitled The Renaissance Woman of Dispute Resolution: Carrie Menkel-Meadow’s Contributions to New Directions in Feminism, Ethics, and ADR (law.tamu.edu/CMM).
We were honored to have a conversation with Professor Carrie Menkel-Meadow, the Distinguished and Chancellor’s Professor of Law at UC Irvine and one of the preeminent scholars and founders of the field of dispute resolution, as a bit of a preview to what we are sure will be an amazing event this spring!
Part 1 of a Three-Part Conversation with Professor Carrie Menkel-Meadow Professor Carrie Menkel-Meadow discusses what is not mediatable, a concept she raises in her chapter, When Should I Be in the Middle? I’ve Looked at Life from Both Sides Now, in EVOLUTION OF A FIELD: PERSONAL HISTORIES IN DISPUTE RESOLUTION (Gadlin & Welsh, eds., 2020).
