existence, flowing directly from communication, inter reaction and relationships. This
can occur at individual, and commercial level, but even at international level in view
of current trend of globalization, which pose some threat to international commercial
transactions. Negotiation and arbitration are form of alternative dispute resolution in
international law. They are the main focus of this thesis and will be death with in
sufficient details in this work. Other forms will receive mention in passing. The former
as an informal and unstructured bargaining process between parties in an effort to
reach an agreement. The concept of negotiation is as old as mankind itself the latter
also involve an in formal process unlike litigation. This study is Justified in that it
attempts a fairly comprehensive analysis of the most popular forms of alternative
dispute resolution in international law, including its pros and cons vis-à-vis the
reason for its preference to litigation, including recommendation for improvement as
a means to boosting international commerce, harmonious co-existence and
international understanding both in trans-border transaction and ultimately a
peaceful world.
