Introduction of Professor Fan Kun:

Abstract:
This talk embarks on an interdisciplinary journey to unravel the cultural and philosophical tapestry underpinning arbitration practices across diverse human societies. By applying a three-dimensional theory of human faculties (mind, heart, soul) and societies (legal, moral, religious), it offers a fresh lens through which to understand the influence of various traditions on arbitration. The talk highlights the need for a nuanced understanding of arbitration, advocating for cultural sensitivity and adaptability in international arbitration practices and education. It invites scholars and practitioners alike to re-evaluate not just how arbitration is practiced, but more profoundly, why it is shaped in diverse and intricate ways, searching for deep-seated social and philosophical reasons underlying its diverse manifestations.

We look forward to seeing you at this event! For more information about IAS, please visit the website of IAS at https://ias.um.edu.mo/. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at ias.programme@um.edu.mo.
