Culture (/ ˈ k ʌ l tʃ ər /) is an umbrella term which encompasses the social behavior and norms found in human societies, as well as the knowledge, beliefs, arts, laws, customs, capabilities, and habits of the individuals in these groups.. Humans acquire culture through the learning processes of enculturation and socialization, which is shown by the diversity of cultures across societies. One of the most important findings of cross-cultural conflict resolution research is that religion is a perennial and perhaps inevitable factor in both conflict and conflict resolution.

Different Approaches to Mediation. Posted on 06/12/ Posted in Mediation Disputes that are going to be settled through mediation usually go through the following five stage process: the initial phase, the opening phase, the exploration phase, the negotiation phase, and finally the settlement or concluding phase.
Mediation is not based on legal premises, but on communication, and can thus be applied virtually anywhere in the world when communicative and cultural barriers are broken down.
Communication methods vary from country to country, depending on the historical development, legal systems, and ethnic and cultural background of each area. Cultural conflict in negotiations tends to occur for two main reasons.
First, it’s fairly common when confronting cultural differences, for people to rely on stereotypes. Stereotypes are often pejorative (for example Italians always run late), and they can lead to distorted expectations about your counterpart’s behavior as well as potentially costly misinterpretations.
Cultural mediation describes a profession that studies the cultural differences between people, using the data in problem solving. It is one of the fundamental mechanisms of distinctly human development according to cultural–historical psychological theory introduced by Lev Vygotsky and developed in the work of his numerous followers worldwide.
