Abstract
A mixed literature review was made to map the knowledge on mindfulness for conflict resolution. Bibliometric and qualitative coding was applied to
studies indexed by Scopus. Those studies come from medicine, psychology and law areas, to shape an emerging interdisciplinary field with Eastern and
Western theoretical approaches. The former serves to manage negative emotions of the counterparts and biases of the mediator; the second to identify
common interests and find solutions to citizen, family, corporative and sociopolitical conflicts. In both cases, the idea of the lawyer as a “gladiator” gives place to that of him/her as a “peacemaker”. Based on these findings, it is suggested to advance future research concerning the degree of openness for applying mindfulness in conflict resolution, as well as to promote mindfulness training for lawyers, professionals from linked areas and community
mediators as peacemakers in sites of major social conflict such as Colombia.
