A History of Alternative Dispute Resolution: Analyzing its Role and Significance

Abstract

    The research paper covers the historical analysis of how legal systems—both formal and informal—that were in place in various civilizations and historical periods were used to settle conflicts. This study briefly examines the development of several legal systems in antiquity. This study demonstrates that while both platforms were supported by human civilizations dispute resolution (ADR) was the most often used method globally and is still in practice today. According to research, people through the ages have chosen dispute resolution (ADR) above formal litigation as their preferred method of resolving disputes. The advantages and significance of resolving disputes through an informal judicial system have been demonstrated by research. The study shows that the ADR mechanism has been very effective in the past and with simple and cost-effective methods of dispute resolution, it can provide speedy access to justice today.
