“…The Town Hall method is used, when family head failed to resolve an issue arising from within the family. In its procedures, it very resembles with the divano and Kris Romani of the Roma community (Sandu, 2018). That is to say, two brothers or sisters or a sister and a brother or a husband and wife, and so on have a quarrel that their parents cannot handle, hence, it is brought before the family head.…”

Con lict and its resolution have often been part of human history. While the post-colonial state has often been the focus when explaining the persistence of con licts and its resolution in Africa, the bene its of such focus and analysis has not been enough to explain the intra-and interstate nature of con licts and con lict management in Africa. This necessitates a reconsideration of con lict management strategies. Such reconsideration will show the intricate ways con licts and its resolutions are shaped, especially in post-con lict societies, through the instrumentality of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) mechanism. With Liberia as the focus and unit of analysis, it noted that the country has been the epicentre of several years of violent con licts with both internal and external dimensions, raising questions about the effectiveness of the orthodox con lict management mechanisms given that the Liberian conlict was intractable for a long time. However, the adoption of alternative dispute resolution mechanisms has helped resolve most, if not all, of the con licts. This paper, therefore, examines the local, traditional and communal alternative dispute resolution mechanisms used to solve the Liberian crisis. Speci ically, the paper interrogates traditional methods of con lict resolution, inclusive of communalism, ethnocultural perception of con licts and its resolution, as

“…Similar with other societies, such as the Roma communities in Romania (Sandu, 2018) who possess indigenous mechanisms in resolving con licts, long before the advent of foreign invaders in the country, early Filipino communities are already governed by laws vis-à-vis the protection of the people of their tribal communities. One of these practices that are still present up to these days is the traditional system of paghusay (resolving con lict using traditional tribal laws).…”

This exploratory research investigates the role of baes (women members of the tribal council) in the traditional system of con lict resolution, as well as in maintaining tribal peace and order. With the Higaunon tribe of Barangay Kiabo, Malitbog, Bukidnon province, Philippines, as case in point, the data employed in this study include the responses of the members of the tribal council, especially of the baes. The study uses a qualitative approach and the data is interpreted using descriptive analysis. The study shows the historical account of the Higaunon tribe, including its patriarchal nature. It also discusses the quali ications, selection process, as well as koda (coding) given to the bae. The article then looks into the roles and responsibilities of the baes in the traditional con lict resolution of the tribe and the role they play in maintaining the peace and order of the tribe in general. Similar with their male counterparts, baes are being selected by the tribal chieftain. The tribal chieftain is also the one who assigns tasks to the baes while, in many instances, the baes serves as the record and tribal activity keepers, making it sure that tribal policies and affairs are observed properly.

“…For example, the Gyspsies all around the world use the word Kris for the Gypsy court and krisinitor for the judge. In their language this means "making peace" and "the one who makes the pace" (Sandu, 2018). The peace pact holders, which are the host villages, are responsible for making sure that the boundaries are properly policed so that no one is killed or seriously injured within their territory (p. 210).…”
