This paper is a result of the research Iivari did for the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health. He discusses the need for regulation and institutionalization in the mediation system. He compares the arguments for and against regulation. He continues the theme by exploring ways in which a mediation system and the criminal justice system can and need to work together. Ivari ends the discussion by developing a prevention (deterrence) theory around mediation.
