在法律领域和其他领域，替代性争议解决可以以多种方式使用。这可能意味着承认除了诉讼之外还有其他方法，而且这些方法有时可能更为适当。但它也可以作为一种方法的标签，被认为是流行但业余的。这篇文章是从传统的冲突解决方法和习俗的深层根源和正当理由应该受到重视的角度来写的。它们构成了久经考验的社会制度的一部分，其中的目标通常不仅仅是解决一个案件。这些方法，无论是包括更多的裁决还是更多的调解，都特别以和解和维持甚至改善社会关系为导向。讨论了几个南非社会的代表性例子，以及西方和习惯法、现代法院和部落法院、法律专业人员和传统领导人的现状。未来的可能性被指出，在一个日益城市化的南非，但一个有新宪法的南非。
In the domain of law, and elsewhere, alternative dispute resolution can be used in more than one way. It may signify a recognition that there are other methods than litigation, and that these may sometimes be more appropriate. But it may also serve as a label for methods which are frowned upon as popular but amateurish. This article is written from the perspective that the deep roots and valid reasons for traditional conflict resolution methods and customs should be taken seriously. They form part of time-proven social systems, in which the objective is usually more than just settling a case. Such methods, whether they include more adjudication or more mediation, are especially oriented towards reconciliation and the maintenance or even improvement of social relationships. Representative examples from a few South African societies are discussed, as well as the current situation of Western and customary law, modern courts and tribal courts, legal professionals and traditional leaders. Possibilities for the future are pointed out, in an increasingly urbanised South Africa, but a South Africa with a new Constitution.
