by Charles J. Coleman (Editor)

Coleman (emeritus, School of Business, Rutgers U.) presents the proceedings of the May 2004 meeting of the National Academy of Arbitrators, which focused on new issues and innovations in workplace dispute resolutions. Papers presented discussed the implications of optimality theory for arbitral practice, the results of the 2002 Presidential Board of Inquiry on the work stoppage on the West coast ports, innovations in dispute resolution in the Las Vegas hotel industry, new approaches to termination arbitrations in the public sector, external law's effect on the arbitration process, workplace privacy, due process in employment arbitration, complex arbitration in the entertainment industry, and the issues facing arbitration in the eyes of the Federal Mediation & Conciliation Service. Presentation of these issues is often followed by panel discussions including the views of arbitrators and management and union representatives.
