摘　　要：This article presents an analysis of a new reform in the process of criminal law dispute resolution in Mexico. It examines the characteristics, principles, strengths, and weaknesses of this process for the protection of human rights, as well as its implications. Findings of the study indicate that the inclusion in the Mexican constitution of alternative dispute resolution mechanisms contributes to strengthening of democracy, by favoring the participation of private wills in handling conflicts and exercising their rights to solve their conflicts without the intervention of state organisms. Participation in mediation is voluntary, confidential, flexible, neutral, impartial, equitable, law abiding, and honest.
