ABSTRACT

Women lawyers are still grossly underrepresented in arbitration which is a field of big business where high incomes are made. It is dominated by big law firms. Till two decades ago the number of women in these firms was small, but as in many countries women meanwhile outnumber men in legal education, the law firms have to hire women increasingly as they need the female talent. On associate level women meanwhile have a fair share. The question arose amongst practitioners which impact an intrusion of women in this formerly male field would have. Can women negotiate as successfully as their male colleagues and do they judge differently? That means that the questions dealt with over many years in projects on gender and judging appeared in a new context.

摘要

女律师在仲裁中的代表性仍然严重不足，这是一个高收入的大企业领域。它由大型律师事务所主导。直到二十年前，这些公司的女性人数还很少，但由于在许多国家，同时在法律教育方面女性人数超过男性，律师事务所不得不越来越多地雇用女性，因为他们需要女性人才。与此同时，在助理级别上，女性也占有相当大的份额。从业者中出现的问题会影响女性在这个以前的男性领域的入侵。女性能否像男性同事一样成功地进行谈判，她们的判断是否不同？这意味着多年来在性别和判断项目中处理的问题出现在一个新的背景下。
