Investment Protection in Brazil
"Showing unambiguously that Brazil in fact enjoys a stable legal system which grants foreign direct investment the same material and procedural rights as national direct investment, the contributors to this book provide a truly informative and useful guide for those who work with law and policy in international investment."--Publisher's website
Theatre of the Rule of Law
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.

Transmissão da Cláusula Arbitral
Quem não é parte de um contrato que contém cláusula arbitral, mas se torna titular de posições jurídicas oriundas desse contrato, ou da posição de uma das partes do contrato, está sujeito à arbitragem? Em termos práticos: o sucessor universal está sujeito à arbitragem? E o cessionário do contrato? E o cessionário do crédito cedido? E quem paga um débito e se sub-roga na posição de credor? E quem assume uma dívida? Embora sejam perguntas simples, há incerteza na doutrina e inconstância na jurisprudência. O trabalho examina a transmissão da cláusula arbitral nessas situações: sucessão universal, cessão de posição contratual, pagamento com sub-rogação, cessão de crédito e assunção de dívida. Cada uma delas tem desafiado a jurisprudência e a doutrina com várias perguntas. O trabalho procura dar-lhes uma resposta.

Latin America and international investment law
Latin America has been a complex laboratory for the development of international investment law. While some governments and non-state actors have remained true to the Latin American tradition of resistance towards the international investment law regime, other governments and actors have sought to accommodate said regime in the region. Consequently, a profusion of theories and doctrines, too often embedded in clashing narratives, has emerged. In Latin America, the practice of international investment law is the vivid amalgamation of the practice of governments sometimes resisting and sometimes welcoming mainstream approaches; the practice of lawyers assisting foreign investors from outside a...
