The Three Ages of International Commercial Arbitration
Drawing on a wide range of previously unpublished sources, this unique history of international commercial arbitration in the modern era identifies three periods in its development: the Age of Aspirations (c. 1780–1920), the Age of Institutionalization (1920s–1950s), and the Age of Autonomy (1950s–present). Mikaël Schinazi analyzes the key features of each period, arguing that the history of international commercial arbitration has oscillated between moments of renewal and anxiety. During periods of renewal, new approaches, instruments, and institutions were developed to carry international commercial arbitration forward. These developments were then reined in during periods of anxiety, for fear that international arbitration might be overstepping its bounds. The resulting tension between renewal and anxiety is a key thread running through the evolution of international commercial arbitration. This book fills a key gap in the scholarship for anyone interested in the fields of international arbitration, legal history, and international law.
FA Mann
This book traces the life and legacy of a German Jewish lawyer, F A Mann, who moved to the UK in 1933 fleeing racial persecution from Germany, and later became one of the best-known legal minds of his age, equally versed and experienced in legal practice and legal scholarship. With contributions from established and emerging scholars, legal practitioners, and members of the judiciary from around the world, F A Mann: The Lawyer and His Legacy is split into three parts. Part I sets out a legal biography of F A Mann, with a particular emphasis on his background, network, and the insights afforded by previously unstudied archival materials. Part II covers the broad range of sub-disciplines and p...

Comitê Brasileiro de Arbitragem e a Arbitragem no Brasil
Embora promulgada em 1996, a ratificação da constitucionalidade de alguns dos dispositivos da Lei de Arbitragem apenas se deu em 2001. Naquele ano, surgia o Comitê Brasileiro de Arbitragem ("CBAr"), cujo propósito é desenvolver a cultura arbitral e difundir, em termos acadêmicos e práticos, a arbitragem no Brasil. A história da arbitragem no Brasil se confunde com a do CBAr e, para celebrar o 20o aniversário da instituição, a presente obra lança a reflexão sobre a história do futuro da arbitragem. Reunindo artigos dos principais arbitralistas nacionais, a obra, sob a ótica do CBAr, traz a análise da ascensão da arbitragem no Brasil, o exame sobre os desafios atualmente enfrentados no âmbito desse sistema e a investigação das questões a serem confrontadas nos próximos anos. Uma obra imperdível que garante, através do passado, a compreensão do presente, para a vivência futura.
The Three Ages of International Commercial Arbitration
A history of modern international commercial arbitration theory and practice from the eighteenth century to the present day.
The Idea of Arbitration
What is arbitration? This volume provides a novel theoretical examination of the concept of arbitration, attempting to answer fundamental questions which have rarely been addressed systematically in English. It exlores the place of arbitration in the legal process, offering a challenging, yet accessible overview of the field and its theoretical underpinnings and contending that arbitration is important enough to be understood in its own terms, as a sui generis feature of social life. Why do individuals, companies, and States choose to go to arbitration rather than through litigation? Arbitraton can offer increased flexibility and confidentiality, and provides the parties with the opportunity to select the arbitrators. But what makes them want to confide in an arbitrator rather than use the more traditional legal mechanisms for settling disputes? This volume explores what the parties can expect of an arbitrator, and whether and how the conduct of an arbitrator might be questioned and under what authority. It examines the ethical challenges to arbitral authority and and its moral hazards, evaluating the promises and dangers of self-contained systems of decision-making and compliance.
Ethics in International Arbitration
International arbitration is a remarkably resilient institution, but many unresolved and largely unacknowledged ethical quandaries lurk below the surface. Globalization of commercial trade has increased the number and diversity of parties, counsel, experts and arbitrators, which has in turn lead to more frequent ethical conflicts just as procedures have become more formal and transparent. The predictable result is that ethical transgressions are increasingly evident and less tolerable. Despite these developments, regulation of various actors in the system arbitrators, lawyers, experts, third-party funders and arbitral institutions remains ambiguous and often ineffectual. Ethics in Internatio...
