Abstract
The First Amendment of the United States Constitution reads:
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
In other words, all U.S. residents are guaranteed freedom of expression, religious practices, and free assembly. This article explores how Alternative Dispute Resolution could be applied to First Amendment conflicts, particularly in disputes over freedom of speech.
The print edition of the issue has also been released. This post was originally published on the Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution website on November 19, 2024.
