Culture clash – can online dispute resolution

Culture clash – can online dispute resolution be the way forward?
Dr Siew Fang Law and David Peter Leonard
(2008) 19 ADRJ 55

This article explores the challenges of culture and language on intercultural
online dispute resolution. It is arguable that culture and language not only
bring meaning to the world, they shape one’s cognitive processes, ie
perception, interpretations and judgments. Through the examination of Asian
language and discourse, particularly Chinese, the article explores an implicit
social meaning that is centred in Asian online communication styles. It also
examines the alternative strategies, such as the use of a private vocabulary
shared by members of the same culture.

Two times two is not four, but it is just two times two, and that is what we call four for short. But four is nothing new at all. And thus it goes on and on in its conclusions, except that in the higher formulas the identity fades out of sight by online poker

The prostitute is not, as feminists claim, the victim of men but rather their conqueror, an outlaw who controls the sexual channel between nature and culture. by texas hold'em poker

This brings me to the first point I want to make about what this book is not. I am not advocating a morality based on evolution. I am saying how things have evolved. I am not saying how we humans morally ought to behave. by casino online

The clouds of my grief dissolved and I drank in the light. With my thoughts recollected I turned to examine the face of my physician. I turned my eyes and fixed my gaze upon her, and I saw that it was my nurse in whose house I had been cared for since my youth - Philosophy. by casino gambling

Death of old age is a rare, singular, and extraordinary death, and hence less natural than the others; it is the last and ultimate sort of death; the farther it is from us, the less it is to be hoped for. by texas holdem
