[edit] A proposed outline

The article has now been moved to Arbitration in the United States of America, as everyone seemed to think it ought. I've put a stub here as a filler - let's keep in mind that the article on arbitration generally should be as internationalist as possible. Here's what I think we should have here:

  • The arbitral process
    • the nature of arbitration / features common to all types of arbitration
    • the arbitrators
    • the arbitral award
  • Specific types of arbitration
    • Commercial arbitration
      • History
      • Special features
      • International commercial arbitration (this will probably need an article of its own - this section should only provide an overview)
      • Investor-state arbitration
    • Labour arbitration
    • Arbitration between states
    • Other types of arbitration (family arbitration, consumer arbitration, etc.)
  • Major arbitral institutions

Does that look like something we could use as a starting point? -- Arvind 10:23, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Sounds like a decent starting point to me. There are probably a few other sub-headings that can go in later (appeals; International arbitation bodies, etc.) but we can refine it as we go. Legis 16:10, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] added link to arbitration comittee

I've added a link to the arbitration comittee on this page. It is quite standard to add things like that to pages such as vandalism, guideline, point of view, etc. Please discuss it if you want to delete this obvious addition. Fresheneesz 00:40, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

I've noticed that you've been adding a hat note on top of the Arbitration article. This is not the best course of action, since we really don't need to advertise our committee on that page, plus I don't think people go to the Arbitration article looking for our ArbCom. Please take a look at WP:ASR for more details. —this is messedrocker (talk) 00:50, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Content

I have added a chunk of content to this article about legalities of arbitration (and removed the stub). I am mindful of the criticisms that were made of the last article that was here (before it was pushed out to "Arbitration in the United States of America", so I have tried to keep it as "international" as I can, but obviously I am limited to what I know. Accordingly, it could still need help in a couple of directions:

  • If any lawyers from other jurisdictions can add anything in relation to the international perspective, that would help broaden the article; and
  • It is very much a legal article at the moment - it would add greatly to the value of the article if someone could add facts and/or figure in relation to the commercial aspects of arbitration.

[edit] Wow....

I have just heard from a professor saying that arbitration is not science. If this is true, why universities teach the law and psychology about arbitration?

[edit] Self Reference

Why was the self reference removed? --Htmlism 21:38, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nothing about Roman law

It is very strange, but there is nothing about Roman law here. As I understand, arbitrage is a bright example of roman institution surviving in modern society. It was quite well known in medieval France, so the french (in fact, roman) influence on England should also be considered. Please correct me if I'm not right.
