ADR Legalization and Its Limits

从比较研究来看，ADR的程序性裁决根据各国法律主权国的特点和法律文化可以划分为若干范畴；例如大陆法系国家、英国和美国、澳大利亚和加拿大、东南亚国家和东亚国家。它是硬法与软法的多元统治。ADR法制化的实质方面不应以与即将判决的距离来衡量。它应该以更详细和复杂的框架来分析，显示利害关系的实体法的性质，提供法律信息和咨询的方法，以及妥协协议的法律效力。本研究期间对《家庭调解法》进行了修改，今后将对其对一般民事调解合法化的影响进行研究。

From the comparative studies, procedural rulings of ADR, depending on the characteristics of each legal sovereign and legal culture, can be classified into some areas ; such as continental law countries, England and US, Australia and Canada, southern east Asian countries, and east Asian countries. It is multiplex ruling, of hard law and soft law. The substantive aspects of ADR legalization should not be measured by the distance from the would-be-judgment. It should be analyzed with more detailed and complex framework, which shows the nature of the substantive law at stake, methods of providing legal information and advice, and the legal effect of compromised agreements. The Law for family conciliation has been amended during this study eriod and its influence on the legalization of general civil conciliation shall be studied from now on.
