Abstract
This study aims to examine the characteristics of online mediation within public systems, focusing on two pivotal elements: the technological progression instigated by the Covid-19 pandemic that led to an almost full digitalisation of Brazil's judicial system and the subsequent implications of an emancipatory conflict transformation. The research engages social constructivist ontological and epistemology of the south as perspectives, thereby conducting an empirical inquiry into the modifications, aspects, and efficacy of mediation across two judicial districts in São Paulo, Brazil, specifically the cities of Piracicaba and Campinas. The paper underscores the role of mediation within the sphere of online dispute resolution (ODR) in Brazil's legal system, serving to enhance access to justice, expedite communicational changes, and address the limitations of digital mediation while ensuring the active involvement of all parties in the proceedings.
Furthermore, the study critically assesses and evaluates the use of mediation as a vital tool in national and international legal systems during the digital judiciary age. To achieve this, a comprehensive re-evaluation of the core principles of mediation is undertaken and juxtaposed with the challenges observed in these regional settings, thus unearthing various topics that necessitate further exploration. In summation, this study offers an insightful understanding of the modalities and regional practices of digital communication in mediation, positing it as a trailblazing approach to enhancing the efficacy of conflict resolution practices and furthering social, cultural, and academic transformation.

Résumé
Cette étude vise à examiner les caractéristiques de la médiation en ligne au sein des systèmes publics, en se concentrant sur deux éléments essentiels : la progression technologique provoquée par la pandémie de Covid-19 qui a conduit à une numérisation presque complète du système judiciaire brésilien et les implications ultérieures d’une politique d’émancipation. transformation des conflits. La recherche engage l’ontologie et l’épistémologie socioconstructivistes du sud comme perspectives, menant ainsi une enquête empirique sur les modifications, les aspects et l’efficacité de la médiation dans deux districts judiciaires de São Paulo, au Brésil, en particulier les villes de Piracicaba et Campinas. Le document souligne le rôle de la médiation dans le domaine du règlement des litiges en ligne (ODR) dans le système juridique brésilien, servant à améliorer l’accès à la justice, à accélérer les changements de communication et à remédier aux limites de la médiation numérique tout en garantissant l’implication active de toutes les parties dans le processus. procédure.
En outre, l’étude évalue de manière critique l’utilisation de la médiation en tant qu’outil essentiel dans les systèmes juridiques nationaux et internationaux à l’ère du système judiciaire numérique. Pour y parvenir, une réévaluation complète des principes fondamentaux de la médiation est entreprise et juxtaposée aux défis observés dans ces contextes régionaux, mettant ainsi au jour divers sujets qui nécessitent une exploration plus approfondie. En résumé, cette étude offre une compréhension approfondie des modalités et des pratiques régionales de la communication numérique dans la médiation, la posant comme une approche pionnière pour améliorer l’efficacité des pratiques de résolution des conflits et favoriser la transformation sociale, culturelle et académique.
