Whether the andAand stands for andappropriateand, andamicableand, or andalternativeand, all out of court dispute resolution modes, collected under the banner term andADRand, aim to assist the business world in overcoming relational differences in a truly manageable way. The first edition of this book (2006) contributed to a global awareness that ADR is important in its own right, and not simply as a substitute for litigation or arbitration. Now, drawing on a wealth of new sources and developments, including the flourishing of hybrid forms of ADR, the subject matter has been largely augmented and expanded on two fronts: in-depth analysis (both descriptive and comparative) ...

The editors of Recognition and Enforcement of International Commercial Arbitral Awards in Latin America: Law, Practice and Leading Cases present a country-by-country review of the law, arbitral practice and leading cases on the recognition and enforcement of international commercial arbitral awards in the region. In a global economy where arbitration has become standard for dispute resolution between commercial entities of different nationalities, the enforcement of international commercial arbitral awards in local jurisdictions is the ultimate bottom-line. Yet even with international conventions in place to facilitate the process, practical information on how Latin American courts enforce international commercial arbitral awards is limited. Organized by country, each chapter provides a relevant overview and guide to the substantive and procedural practice in the jurisdiction. In contrast to other sources of information and databases, the book provides excerpts of leading cases, analyses of relevant laws and international treaties and descriptions of local practice.
The book provides an analysis of the emergence, evolution, and transformation of transnational securities regulation and of the influences from and the interactions between global regulatory powers in the field. Combining insights from law and political science, the work employs a two-tier complementary "on-the-books" and "in-action” approach. The more classical "on-the-books" approach draws on scholarship in United States and European Union securities regulation; transnational regulation and global administrative law; regime complexity; global governance studies; and the regulatory production of the International Organisation of Securities Commissions (IOSCO). The law in-action approach l...

A obra traz os conceitos e aspectos relevantes tanto do contrato de adesão como da arbitragem, para, em base sólida, enfrentar as intrincadas e complexas questões jurídicas na intersecção destes dois temas – contrato de adesão e arbitragem. In Prefácio de Francisco Cahali. O trabalho é permeado de qualidades do início ao fim, perpassando o viés do ineditismo.

Passados dez anos de vigência da Lei 11.101, de 9 de fevereiro de 2005 ("LRE"), as reflexões sobre o direito da empresa em crise traçam-se não apenas à luz do texto legal e de eventuais incursões no direito estrangeiro, mas também da importante doutrina nacional em construção desde então e do abrangente repertório de decisões proferidas nos processos de recuperação judicial e falência. Com fulcro em estudos e na experiência de aplicação da LRE, os artigos aqui apresentados abordam alguns dos mais relevantes temas relacionados aos institutos concursais, muitos dos quais continuam a gerar dúvidas acerca da melhor interpretação do diploma.
