Managing Pluralism

Author(s):  
Vanessa Mak

This chapter examines which mechanisms can provide ‘checks and balances’ for the rules created by different lawmakers in a legal pluralist constellation. The question here is which space exists for the creation and maintenance of private governance mechanisms based on voluntary participation. First, the chapter maps the mechanisms for monitoring the substance of private lawmaking, in so far as they relate to European contract law. Second, the spaces that exist between private and public regulation in relation to each of these instruments are examined. The chapter moves on to a more in-depth analysis of the space that private regulation has besides public regulation. The relevant mechanisms that can be discerned are: standardisation of contracts, the use of optional instruments or model rules in contract law, and monitoring through online dispute resolution.

This article undertakes a brief comparison of private and public online dispute resolution [ODR] systems before providing an overview of the Civil Resolution Tribunal [CRT], Canada’s first online tribunal, and its ODR processes. The article discusses why the CRT has come to be, how it has been implemented, as well as its implications for civil justice reform more broadly. A main proposition is that the transformational potential of ODR will only be realized when ODR is fully integrated with public justice processes. This proposition is not without its difficulties, as the CRT’s experience illustrates. To this end, the article also provides an introduction to some of the opportunities and challenges offered by an integrated ODR system like the CRT as well as some of the steps the CRT has taken to meet these demands as transparently and collaboratively as possible.

Since the verdict of the Constitutional Court (MK) Number 93/PUU-X/2012 pronounced on Thursday, August 29, 2013, concerning the judicial review of Law No. 21 of 2008 on Islamic Banking, it is no longer dualism dispute resolution. The verdict as well as strengthen the jurisdiction of Religious Court to resolve Islamic banking disputes. In consideration of the judges, judges agreed stating that Article 55 paragraph (2) and (3) of Law No. 21 of 2008 which is an ideal norm, contains no constitutional problems. The problem is the explanation of the constitutional article 55 paragraph (2) of the Act. The emergence of the Constitutional Court verdict No. 93/PUU-X/2012 which substantially states that the explanation of Article 55 paragraph (2) of Law No. 21 of 2008 does not have binding force, basically does not violate the principle of freedom of contract which is common in contract law. The parties are allowed to make a dispute resolution agreement out of religious court based on provisions as Act No. 30 of 1999 on Arbitration and Alternative Dispute Resolution. Keywords: dispute resolution, legal certainty and the principle of freedom of contract

Secara konvensional, penyelesaian sengketa bisnis pada umumnya diselesaikan melalui pengadilan (litigasi). Adapun proses litigasi lebih bergaya dominasi yang menyebabkan posisi para pihak yang berlawanan, jauh dari konsep integrasi yang bersifat win-win solution. Tidak dapat dipungkiri pula bahwa proses penyelesaian melalui litigasi membutuhkan waktu yang cukup lama dan menyebabkan ketidakpastian bagi perusahaan atau para pihak yang bersengketa. Didalam dunia bisnis saat ini, penyelesaian sengketa melalui pengadilan tidak disukai oleh banyak pihak. Selanjutnya munculllah penyelesaian sengketa melalui jalur non letigasi. Salah satu bentuk non letigasi ini adalah Online Dispute Resolution (ODR). ODR merupakan penyelesaian sengketa melalui dunia maya (internet) tanpa melakukan pertemuan secara fisik. ODR sudah dilakukan di banyak negara di Amerika dan di Eropa. Hal ini ditandai dengan munculnya institusi yang direpresentasikan oleh website mereka yang melayani penyelesaian sengketa dengan jalur Online Dispute Resolution ini. ABSTRACT:onventionally, business disputes are settled by litigation. While the settlement process is more focused on domination which leads to the opposing party's position, far from the concept of integration which is a win-win solution. It cannot be denied either because the settlement process through litigation takes quite a long time and depends on the company or the parties in dispute. In the business world today, being approved through the court is not approved by many parties. Then came the agreement through the non-litigation way. One of it is Online Dispute Resolution (ODR). ODR is an agreement from the virtual world (internet) without having a physical meeting. ODR has been carried out in many countries in America and in Europe. This is indicated by the agreement represented by their website which is presented resolved by this Online Dispute Resolution.
