(Університет «КРОК», 2021) Dzagnidze, Dimitri
Article provides a general overview of legislative provisions of law of Georgia “On Mediation” and accom- panying legislative amendments adopted by the Parliament in Georgia in 2019 and highlights the specific characteristics of Georgian regulatory model of mediation. The paper examines the evolution of mediation in Georgian legal system from its initial introduction in sectoral legislation in 2011 to adoption by the parliament of Georgia of a new law “On Mediation” and its accom- panying legislative changes. The article argues that sound legislative basis is one but not the only precondition for the well-func- tioning mediation system. Public trust and awareness of stakeholders is another factor in order to achieve that aim. Article explores the legislative novelties and highlights the important changes in this field of law. In author’s opinion the new law fills the legal gaps that existed prior to the reform. At the same time, the article underlines the weaknesses of new legislation that need to be addressed for further development and full implementation of mediation in Georgia.
