OBS

The American Arbitration Association (AAA) is one of several arbitration organizations that administers arbitration of disputes brought to it by members of the public. The AAA also administers mediation and other forms of alternative dispute resolution. Many contracts include an arbitration clause naming the AAA as the organization that will administer an arbitration between the parties. The AAA does not itself arbitrate disputes, but provides administrative support to arbitrations before a single arbitrator or a panel of three arbitrators. The arbitrators are chosen in accordance with the parties' agreement or, if the parties do not agree otherwise, in accordance with the AAA rules.

OBS

Organisme privé sans but lucratif fondé en 1926 en vue de favoriser le recours à l'arbitrage dans le règlement des conflits. À l'origine, il encourageait surtout les arbitrages commerciaux dans le domaine international, mais à la suite du développement du syndicalisme, il s'est de plus en plus orienté vers l'arbitrage des conflits de travail. L'American Arbitration Association publie plusieurs périodes qui contiennent, soit des études sur les problèmes de l'arbitrage, soit certaines décisions arbitrales.
