Drawing on a wide range of previously unpublished sources, this unique history of international commercial arbitration in the modern era identifies three periods in its development: the Age of Aspirations (c.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.

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.
Providing a theoretical examination of the concept of arbitration, this book explores the place of arbitration in the legal process and examines the ethical challenges to arbitral authority and its moral hazards.
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.
