"La consideración de la mediación, cuyas ventajas son sobradamente conocidas por todos, como un camino hacia la paz, se encuentra estrechamente unida a la posibilidad de que, a través de la misma, las relaciones existentes entre las partes sobrevivan al conflicto; relaciones que, de otra forma, quedarían, irremediablemente, rotas para siempre. Este beneficio —estas ventajas— es extrapolable a muchos sectores de la sociedad, pues muchos son los ámbitos en los que la mediación puede cumplir esta función pacificadora. Los últimos años —quizás la última década— han sido muy prolíferos en lo que al desarrollo de la mediación se refiere. Cada vez en mayor medida se va consiguiendo una toma de conciencia y, con ella, una desjudicialización de la sociedad, tan necesaria para asumir la mediación como verdadera alternativa a la vía judicial. No obstante, aún queda mucho camino por recorrer, tanto desde un punto de vista político, como jurídico. En gran parte, a esto último —al aspecto jurídico—, es a lo que intenta contribuir esta obra". Manuel García Mayo.

En las sociedades de hoy, complejas y heterogéneas, los ciudadanos muestran cada vez más una mayor desconfianza hacia las instituciones burocratizadas y buscan el atractivo de nuevas formas de participación que canalicen sus deseos, sus intereses y problemas. Desde este punto de vista, la mediación ha sido una de las respuestas que se ha dado a estas exigencias ciudadanas. La mediación constituye una forma de resolver los conflictos más flexible que la jurisdicción ordinaria y permite que los afectados sean los verdaderos protagonistas en la resolución de sus diferencias. En este sentido la obra La mediación: Presente, pasado y futuro de una institución jurídica analiza, desde una perspectiva multidisciplinar, las posibilidades que ofrece esta forma de solventar litigios. En este trabajo, expertos en diversas disciplinas reflexionan sobre la delimitación de las diferentes tipologías de mediación subrayando, en cada caso, los retos que ha de afrontar su posible regulación jurídica. Desde todos los ámbitos del Derecho, sin olvidar la aplicación de la mediación en otros campos, este volumen colectivo apuesta por presentar esta institución jurídica en su globalidad, destacando que la mediación está llamada a convertirse en una práctica habitual en las sociedades democráticas.

Does a justice system have a welfare function? If so, where does the boundary lie between justice and welfare, and where can the necessary resources and expertise be found? In a time of austerity, medical emergency, and limited public funding, this book explores the role of the family justice system and asks whether it has a function beyond decision-making in dispute resolution. Might a family justice system even help to prevent or minimise conflict as well as resolving dispute when it arises? The book is divided into 4 parts, with contributions from 22 legal scholars working across Europe, Australia, Argentina and Canada. - Part 1 looks at what constitutes a family justice system in different jurisdictions, and how a welfare element is included in the legal framework. - Part 2 looks at those engaged with a family justice system as professionals and users, and explores how far private ordering is encouraged in different countries. - Part 3 looks at new ways of working within a family justice system and raises the question of whether the move towards privatisation derives from the intrinsic value of individual autonomy and acceptance of responsibility in family disputes, or whether it is also a response to the increasing burden on the state of providing a welfare-minded family justice system. - Part 4 explores recent major changes of direction for the family justice systems of Australia, Argentina, Turkey, Spain, and Germany.

One of the first attempts to present a comprehensive study of legal translation, this book is an interdisciplinary study in law and translation theory. It is not bound to any specific languages or legal systems, although emphasis is placed on translation between common law and civil law jurisdictions. The main focus is on the translation of texts which are authoritative sources of the law; examples are cited primarily from statutes, codes and constitutions (Canada, Switzerland and Belgium), as well as instruments of the European Union and international treaties and conventions. Dealing with theoretical as well as practical aspects of the subject matter, the author analyses legal translation as an act of communication in the mechanism of the law, thus making it necessary to redefine the goal of legal translation. This book is intended for both lawyers and linguists, translation theorists, legal translators and drafters, legal lexicographers, as well as teachers and students of translation.

Text Analysis in Translation has become a classic in Translation Studies. Based on a functional approach to translation and endebted to pragmatic text linguistics, it suggests a model for translation-oriented source-text analysis applicable to all text types and genres independent of the language and culture pairs involved. Part 1 of the study presents the theoretical framework on which the model is based, and surveys the various concepts of translation theory and text linguistics. Part 2 describes the role and scope of source-text analysis in the translation process and explains why the model is relevant to translation. Part 3 presents a detailed study of the extratextual and intratextual factors and their interaction in the text, using numerous examples from all areas of professional translation. Part 4 discusses the applications of the model to translator training, placing particular emphasis on the selection of material for translation classes, grading the difficulty of translation tasks, and translation quality assessment. The book concludes with the practical analysis of a number of texts and their translations, taking into account various text types and several languages (German, English, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, and Dutch).
