Lecture 1: Opening Questions

Each scenario will be the focus of a 105-minute panel facilitated by one of the Workshop organizers. Each panel will include several dispute resolution professionals and several political theorists. Each panelist will have 5 minutes to make an opening comment on the situation described in the scenario. Panelists will then have 20 – 30 minutes to respond to each other’s statements. The rest of the Workshop participants will have at least 30 minutes to join the conversation that emerges about each scenario.
