内容概要

“This book does not function as a handbook or guide to the current state of the doctrine However，for those in the field who are thinking critically about the current structure of U。S。 arbitration law，the authors have done a fine job of assessing areas that require further study and presenting policy based normative propositions that can and should spark critical debate。”　　Arguing that the 80 year-old Federal Arbitration Act badly needs major changes，the authors， who have previously written major articles on arbitration law and policy，set out their own views and argue among themselves about the necessary reforms of arbitration。The book contains draft legislation for use in international and domestic arbitration and detailed explanation of the precise justifications for proposed legislative changes。 It also contains two proposals that might be deemed radical to ban arbitration related to the purchase of products by consumers and to prohibit arbitration of employment disputes。 Each proposal is vetted fully and critiqued by one or more of the other co-authors。
