Arbitration is the True Balance of Power
EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Timeless Message from Puck's 1886 Cartoon This 1886 cartoon by Puck, titled "Arbitration is the True Balance of Power," offers a compelling commentary on the role of arbitration in regulating the balance of power between conflicting parties. The image features two men intently setting the hands of a large clock in a business environment, symbolizing the laborious process of resolving disputes through lengthy negotiations or litigation. Standing atop a book labeled "Common Sense," Puck, the mischievous and wise mythological creature, holds up a pendulum labeled "Arbitration." With a stern expression, Puck warns the gentlemen below, "Don't meddle with the hands, gentlemen - this pendulum is the only thing to regulate that clock!" The pendulum, representing the impartial and decisive nature of arbitration, serves as a reminder that sometimes, the best way to resolve disputes is by entrusting a neutral third party to make a fair and balanced decision. The cartoon's message remains as relevant today as it was over a century ago, as arbitration continues to be a popular alternative to costly litigation and lengthy negotiations. This cartoon, originally published in Puck magazine on March 17, 1886, offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of arbitration and its enduring significance in resolving disputes. The image is a testament to the power of visual storytelling and the enduring wisdom of Puck's commentary on the importance of balance and impartiality in the face of conflict.
