Advocacy in international arbitration is the focus of this collection of articles emanating from the twentieth Congress of the International Council for Commercial Arbitration (ICCA) held in Rio de Janeiro in 2010. The topics addressed by renowned arbitration practitioners and scholars include: effective advocacy in arbitration; the advocate's role at different stages of arbitration proceedings; the role of experts; arbitration advocacy and Constitutional law; and advocacy and ethics in international arbitration. The volume also contains a new approach to expert evidence - the Protocol on Expert Teaming - and closes with a proposal for an International Code of Ethics for Lawyers Practicing Before International Arbitral Tribunals.
Theatre of the Rule of Law presents a sustained critique of global rule of law promotion - an expansive industry at the heart of international development, post-conflict reconstruction and security policy today. While successful in articulating and disseminating an effective global public policy, rule of law promotion has largely failed in its stated objectives of raising countries out of poverty and taming violent conflict. Furthermore, in its execution, this work deviates sharply from 'the rule of law' as commonly conceived. To explain this, Stephen Humphreys draws on the history of the rule of law as a concept, examples of legal export during colonial times, and a spectrum of contemporary interventions by development agencies and international organisations. Rule of law promotion is shown to be a kind of theatre, the staging of a morality tale about the good life, intended for edification and emulation, but blind to its own internal contradictions.

A arbitragem vale o que vale o árbitro. É em tal premissa que se assenta esta que é a primeira obra coletiva em língua portuguesa dedicada exclusivamente à Função de Árbitro. Os aspectos da função são desenvolvidos não apenas a partir de diferentes elementos objetivos e interdisciplinares, mas também com contribuição pessoal, única e singular, das autoras e autores de inigualável quilate técnico e científico. A Professora e Membro da Comissão Relatora da Lei de Arbitragem Selma Ferreira Lemes, que assina o Prefácio, relata: "Não posso deixar de ressaltar duas aferições importantes que defluem da análise dos artigos que compõem esta coletânea. A primeira é seu caráter inovador, quanto à forma de abordagem. A segunda é a complexidade e profundidade em que os temas são discorridos, a maestria dos articulistas. Nada aqui é raso ou superficial. Vai-se às entranhas e à problemática que os temas encerram. Estes dois atributos alçam este livro à categoria de obra doutrinária de terceira geração da arbitragem brasileira.

Today thousands of investors act globally in markets providing services, technology or capital in countries all around the world. This activity can be peacefully accomplished when both the investor and the host State know that the disputes will be resolved under the aegis of the investor-State arbitration regime, wherein an investor is provided with a direct right of action against a State, most commonly stemming from a bilateral or multilateral investment treaty. This book approaches the substantive and sometimes difficult concepts of investor-State arbitration in a clear and concise explanatory fashion. In the course of acquainting the reader with the basic legal concepts and policies of t...
