Negotiation and third party mediation are two common approaches to resolving disputes. Some conflicts are better addressed through negotiation, and other conflicts are better addressed through third party mediation. Understanding both approaches to resolution helps you to distinguish between the two and understand which to apply to a given conflict.

Feedback from my instructor from the previous essay:
You have some good ideas here but more research support is needed. Aim for at least 1 citation per paragraph.
Work on how you phrase things. I appreciate your effort, but, at times, this seems like a thesauraus, which is fine, at times, but over use leads to awkward phrasing and unclear meaning.
I encourage you to reach out to the Walden Writing Center as they can help you strengthen your academic writing.
You are just a bit shy of the minimum 2 pages. Push yourself and go deeper!
