Applied Dispute Resolution Journal

The Fall 2026 edition of the Applied Dispute Resolution Journal brings together ideas, perspectives, and innovations from the evolving world of dispute resolution. At the heart of this issue is the 16th Annual International Cyberconference on Dispute Resolution, convened on April 8, 2026. The symposium brought together practitioners, scholars, and innovators from around the world to explore emerging approaches to peacebuilding, justice, and conflict resolution. Their collective work reaffirmed a timeless truth: in an increasingly digital and interconnected world, the pursuit of justice and peace remains both urgent and enduring.

Alongside selections from the cyberconference, this issue features thought-provoking scholarship addressing some of today's emerging challenges in dispute resolution, including “Conflict Intelligence in Leadership: Psychometric Validation of the Conflict-IQ® Assessment,� “Effective Dispute Resolution: A Categorical Imperative on Mediator Dilemmas,� “The Professional and Strategic Value of the Ombudsman in Conflict Resolution,� and “Facilitating Conflict Communication in Distributed Workplaces.�

Together, these contributions invite readers to consider where dispute resolution has been, where it stands today, and—most importantly—where it is going.

“Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding.�
— Albert Einstein
