The primary aim of this paper is to demonstrate the ways in which historical roots and social context have had an impact on mediation in Taiwan. During the investigation, the history, legal environment, and everyday practice of mediation were analyzed with particular attention to an out‐of‐court alternative dispute resolution method: town mediation. As the findings of a literature review and the qualitative field work confirm, town mediation only adheres to some principles of professionalism, and only to a limited extent. However, some specific features of town mediation that successfully contribute to peaceful conflict resolution are also discussed
