| Abstract: | It is argued in this essay that generalizations about cultural identities and values should play a key role in designing procedures to resolve disputes. Generalizations about cultures are risky given the complexity of memberships and group boundaries, not to mention the power dynamics within and between social groups. Still, it is important to take the risk: attempts to avoid or transcend culture in resolving disputes pose an even greater danger, or reiterating the understandings of dominant cultural groups under the guise of neutrality. |
