Conflict Resolution by Mahatma Gandhi, the Lawyer
CONFLICT RESOLUTION by
Mahatma Gandhi, the Lawyer
“I had learnt the true practice of law. I had learnt to find
the better side of human nature and to enter men’s hearts. I realized the true
function of a lawyer was to unite parties riven asunder. The lesson was so
indelibly burnt into me, that a large part of my time during the twenty years
of my practice as a lawyer was occupied in bringing about private compromises
of hundreds of cases. I lost nothing thereby – not even money, certainly not
my soul.”
-
Mahatma Gandhi, 1927
(The Law and the Lawyers, chap. 12, p. 45)
