Mediation as a Mandatory Pre-condition to Arbitration
Mediation as a Mandatory Pre-condition to Arbitration debunks common arguments against the compatibility of mandatory investor-state mediation with the ISDS regime. Ana Ubilava pioneers an empirical analysis of over 600 investor-state arbitration cases and a doctrinal study of ISDS clauses in dozens of treaties.
International Commercial and Investor-State Arbitration
This thought-provoking book combines analysis of international commercial and investment treaty arbitration in order to examine how they have been framed by the twin tensions of ‘in/formalisation’ and ‘glocalisation’. Taking a comparative approach, the book focuses on Australia and Japan in their attempts to become regional hubs for international arbitration and dispute resolution services in the increasingly influential Asia-Pacific context as well as a global context.

The Functions of International Adjudication and International Environmental Litigation
This book uses environmental disputes as a focus to develop a novel comparative analysis of the functions of international adjudication. Paine focuses on three challenges confronting international tribunals: managing change in applicable legal norms or relevant facts, determining the appropriate standard and method of review when scrutinising State conduct for compliance with international obligations, and contributing to wider processes of dispute settlement. The book compares how tribunals manage these challenges across four key sites of international adjudication: adjudication in the World Trade Organization and under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, International Court of Justice litigation, and investment treaty arbitration. It shows that while international tribunals perform several key functions in the contemporary international legal order, they are subject to significant constraints. Paine makes a genuine addition to literature on the role of international adjudication in international law which will benefit academics, practitioners, and policymakers.
The Legitimacy of Investment Arbitration
A rigorous and empirically-based analysis of the legitimacy challenges facing investment arbitration and the potential for reforms to remedy critique.
New Frontiers in Asia-Pacific International Arbitration and Dispute Resolution
International Arbitration Law Library Volume 59 The eastward shift in international dispute resolution has already involved initiatives not only to improve support for international commercial arbitration (ICA) and investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) but also to develop alternatives such as international commercial courts and mediation. Focusing on these initiatives and their accompanying case law and trends in the Asia-Pacific region, this invaluable book challenges existing procedures and frameworks for cross-border dispute resolution in both commercial and treaty arbitration. Specially assembled for this project, an outstanding team of experienced and insightful arbitrators and schol...
China's International Investment Strategy
Since China adopted its 'open door' policy in 1978, which altered its development strategy from self-sufficiency to active participation in the world market, its goal has remained unchanged: to assist the readjustment of China's economy, to coordinate its modernization programs, and to improve its quality of life. With the 1997 launch of the 'Going Global' policy, an outward focus regarding foreign investment was added, to circumvent trade barriers and improve the competitiveness of Chinese firms. In order to accommodate inward and outward investment, China's participation in the international investment regime has underpinned its efforts to join multilateral investment-related legal instrum...
Mediation in International Commercial and Investment Disputes
Until now, the resolution of international commercial and investment disputes has been dominated almost exclusively by international arbitration. But that is changing. Whilst they may be complementary mechanisms, international mediation and conciliation are now coming to the fore. Mediation rules that were in disuse gather momentum, and dispute settlement centres are introducing new mediation rules. The European Union is encouraging international mediation in both the commercial and investment spheres. The 2019 Singapore Mediation Convention of the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) is aiming to ensure enforcement of international commercial settlement agreements...
Conciliation and Mediation in India
Global Trends in Dispute Resolution Series, Volume 11 It can be said that negotiation is about what to do, whereas mediation is about how to do it—how to make sure control is in the hands of the disputants. Although mediation (as well as conciliation) is taking hold in dispute resolution worldwide, among the nations, India shows the strongest signs of interest in developing a pervasive legal mediation culture. In this invaluable book, more than 20 formidable thought leaders with global reputations in dispute resolution describe how mediation is used, and can be used, to resolve different types of disputes in India and international cases. With a focus throughout on the law and procedure ap...
