Abstract

The presence of suffering in mediations is undeniable and using it to the advantage of the process is a skill that competent mediators must manage. This article answers how mediators can help parties search for a purpose to justify their pain, presenting the views of a holocaust survivor and his belief that men are ready to suffer when they are able to develop a sense of coherence.
