- This book provides the first evidence-based critical analysis of different styles of out-of-court family dispute resolution in England and Wales as experienced over a 15-year period. It is the product of some five years of work, including a complex, interdisciplinary ESRC-funded empirical study. This drew together two nationally representative surveys of over 6,000 people alongside 145 qualitative in-depth interviews with practitioners and parties as well as 13 sets of recorded dispute resolution sessions. The book analyses the complex findings from these data against the backdrop of the neo-liberal transformation of the family justice system, ongoing during the research period.
