Essay / Research Paper Abstract
3 pages in length. With the court system buckling under the long-standing strain of frivolous and dismissible cases, placing disputes between intimate partners and/or close relatives into a mediation program instead of going to trial offers two immediate benefits: relieves the overtaxed system of circumstances that do not truly warrant court attention and provides a much more workable set of options for the participants above the stringency of court. Another important reason to mediate circumstances of domestic violence is the capacity to bring the offender into the world of his victim in a very intimate way. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

its recognition that men, as cultural beings, can change because abusive behavior is cultural, not inherent to human behavior. The shift in the
way Americas judicial system responds to the issue of domestic violence has been both grand and far-reaching; what was once a situation spouses were expected to endure within the confines

a judicial system that has woken up to the long reach of patriarchal control in what is otherwise a free and civilized society. One of the most important reasons
why mediation has taken such a positive turn as a viable alternative to court is because the prevalence of domestic violence does not end once the abuse stops or the
