Summary

Much as different modes of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) have gained in popularity around the world, there has been growing global interest in the combined use of such modes, or hybrid modes of dispute resolution. This typically requires mediation, arbitration and other modes of ADR to be attempted in an agreed sequence. Such process is referred to as ‘multi-tier dispute resolution’ (MDR). Despite its widespread popularity, the development of MDR has followed different trajectories in different jurisdictions. This introductory chapter will provide a comparative survey of how MDR has been regulated and approached and its many pathways around the world.
