The Ethical Norms in Digital ADR
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This paper examines the evolution of ethical standards in digital Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) and the experiences and prospects for BRICS nations. As ADR adopts innovative technologies, traditional ethical principles must adapt. Literature on digital ethics, ADR codes of conduct, and technology utilization in Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa was reviewed. Gaps exist in research on adapting ADR ethics for new technologies. The study's theoretical contribution demonstrates the interdependency of ADR ethics and technological advances. Practical recommendations are provided for ADR associations to update ethical codes for the digital environment. Findings indicate balancing emerging technologies with core ADR values of trust, fairness and transparency is needed. Limitations include a lack of empirical data. Further research should examine user perspectives across BRICS countries. This paper advances understanding of ethical evolution in digital ADR globally and regionally.
