Michael Bartlet is a Senior Lecturer in Law at the College of Law, SOAS University of London, convening ADR courses and tutoring Public Law while serving on the Summer Progression Board. A qualified barrister since 1992, he integrates mediation practice with advocacy for human rights and refugee rights.
His academic qualifications include:
- BA in English Literature, University of Oxford
- LLM, University of London
Bartlet's research centers on Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR), Public Law, and Law and Literature. His ADR scholarship examines mediation ethics, access to justice, and mandatory processes, informed by civil/family/community mediation training. In Public Law, he analyzes freedom of information, legislative reforms for same-sex marriage in Quaker contexts, and armed forces discharge rights, drawing from his British Quakers parliamentary role. His Law and Literature work explores narrative techniques in legal reasoning.
Publications from 2008-2024 reveal evolving ADR scholarship from Quaker human rights perspectives ('Nonsense on Stilts?') to contemporary rule-of-law tensions in mandatory mediation. Key themes include religious freedom jurisprudence (Eweida case), African peacebuilding, and ethical gaps in civil justice systems, consistently bridging theoretical critique with practical advocacy for marginalized voices.
