This article aims to explain the negotiation techniques used in mediation and the resulting benefits, in particular, the Harvard method and game theory. The problem of work lies in properly understanding conflict as a transformative social fact that, when worked well, strengthens the relationship between the parties. For this, the logicaldeductive methodology was used combined with the study of doctrine and legislation. As a result, it was found that the adoption of a cooperative stance in the litigation enables the multiplication of individual gains and, with that, the achievement of collective gains. As the main contribution of the work, it has been that, when allied with the negotiation techniques of the Harvard method and the theory of Nash games, the use of self-compositional procedures is extremely efficient for the solution of disputes, notably, by providing multiple gains.

The promotion of the adoption of the so-called Adequate Means of Conflict Resolution, which excel in the dialogued and non-imposing solutions as an alternative to the adjudicatory and heterocompositive solution, gained momentum with the implementation of the Judicial Policy of Adequate Treatment of Conflicts by the National Council of Justice, with the edition of Resolution 125/2010 and its subsequent amendments, being strengthened by Law 13,140/2015, which constitutes the legislative framework of mediation, and by the Civil Procedure Code, Law No. 105 105/2015. The growing interest in these methods is linked to the emergence of a new conflict resolution paradigm. In this sense, conciliation and mediation aim to strengthen the project of the Judiciary to value participatory democracy and citizenship by achieving adequate, swift and effective access to Justice, contributing to humanization in dealing with various types of sensitive and complex conflicts. In order to contribute to the current debate, this article aims to reflect on practical and theoretical aspects related to conciliation and mediation under the lens of the socalled schools of mediation.

In this essay our intention is to draw the genealogy of Atlantic history as it is practiced in the United States. After defining this historiographical approach and emphasizing its opportuneness – without forgetting its rare detractors –, we address the main publications that punctuated its development in the United States and the special issues of journals that have identified its nature and delineated the field. We also discuss the conference and publication programs of the two most active centers in Atlantic history, that of Harvard, Massachusetts, and of the University of Charleston, South Carolina, and the role of their founders Bernard Bailyn and Jack P. Greene respectively. Finally, we explain how this approach has considerably renewed the historiography of British North America.

This article tries to make a relation of resemblance between the conferences which the Italian author Italo Calvino (born in Santiago de Las Vegas, Cuba) had prepared to the University of Harvard, but, due to his death, were never published. This artistic legacy of one of all time literary main characters, allows us to suggest a reflection about concepts, activities, processes and the most common doubts that IC professionals look for in the current complex business activity.
