Arbitration as an iPhone, or Why Conduct Academic Research in Arbitration?
Year: 2011
Type: article
Abstract: I do enjoy having these little chats at the opening of the journal. This is a lie, in fact. What actually happens is that you find yourself among many luminaries—luminaries who contribute to the journal, luminaries who read the journal, or so I'm told—and you're asked to stand up and make a meaningful statement, general enough to tie everyone in, strong enough to actually say something, yet soft enough so as not to alienate anyone, while trying to make some sort of sense. What could I possibly have to say? Well, I figured I could try something unconventional, and provoke and inflame opinion until there is a small outburst of chair throwing. So let me tackle a modest question: what are we actually doing here? Why do academic research in arbitration, or more precisely, in the parlance of medical scientists who oppose it to clinical research, why do basic research in arbitration?
