Abstract

The need to enhance the academic and professional development of mediation to achieve its growth as a scientific discipline is presented. The current legal and socio-economic moment we are experiencing makes us foretell that it is time to find the “right place for its progress”. Some of the appropriate strategies for the development of the identity of mediation professionals are established. For this purpose, a tour of the experimental, social, professional and formal movement of development and consolidation of Mediation is made.

Several investigations that have remained constant for more than a decade towards the process of construction, development and consolidation of the area of knowledge of mediation have been analyzed.
