Open publisher page 10 citations

Abstract

This article focuses on the mediation mandate, a phenomenon that is neglected in the literature but extremely significant in practice. It aims to highlight the importance of the mandate and deepen conceptual clarity by presenting a typology of different kinds of mediation mandate and examining their functions, effects, and relationships. It shows that mandates can both constrain and empower mediators and that they are major determinants of the process, goals, and outcome of mediation.
