Competence-Competence in the Face of Illegality in Contracts and Arbitration Agreements
Competence-competence and corruption have, for different reasons, been mainstays of international dispute resolution thought and practice for the longest time. In the last few years, their intersection has become increasingly important and problematic. These lectures seek to define the problem and to provide acceptable solutions where possible. They attempt to derive support from both a stringent dogmatic approach and pragmatic attention to real-life expectations and conduct. More so than in other areas of private international law, the intersection between the powers of the arbitrator and the illegality of the subject matter or the parties’ conduct poses a particular challenge. That chall...

Transnational Litigation
This work is a clear, easy-to-understand guide to the issues and decision points encountered when planning to resolve, or avoid, a transnational dispute. Each basic concept and all facets of litigation procedure and strategy are explored in the context of multi-jurisdictional interaction; that is, exposing the characteristics of one legal system which may, or may not, be available in the other. The analysis elucidates the choices available at the different stages of a transnational litigation. These choices appear in each and every phase of litigation, as well as during the planning process when dispute avoidance is the primary objective. The first half of this book is a practitioner's guide with ample descriptions of how to conduct litigation abroad. The second half is sub-divided into six appendices, and includes a table of cases and a topic index.
Arbitrating Foreign Investment Disputes
Cross-border direct investment constitutes a substantial sector of the international financial market and is also an important vehicle for the transfer of technology and the modernisation of national economies. In recent years, international arbitration has gained a prominent role as a means of settlement of foreign investment disputes. The number and size of investment disputes under arbitration have risen significantly due to the growing number of bilateral investment treaties and increased use of arbitration under multilateral investment treaties. Arbitrating such disputes requires specialised skills and arbitrators with international experience. This new title, featuring contributions fr...

Each provision of the new Rules is given its own chapter, in which the following iss...
Written Evidence and Discovery in International Arbitration
Documentary evidence is at the heart of the arbitral process. Arbitrators are increasingly confronted with new challenges, such as requests for E-Discovery, as well as ever more frequent objections to confidentiality and privilege. Document production may also confront arbitrators with difficult issues of fraud and forgery. Further, Arbitral tribunals may have to decide which rules apply to issues such as the evidentiary value of documents or their admissibility. The practice of documentary evidence is changing as international arbitrators look for transnational solutions capable of striking a proper balance between efficiency and fairness. Transnational instruments such as the IBA Rules on the Taking of Evidence in International Commercial Arbitration may need to evolve to accommodate new approaches and solutions.

Parallel State and Arbitral Procedures in International Arbitration

But considerable problems remain. the aim of this new Dossier by the ICC Institute of World Business Law, is to give the reader a thorough picture of the practical issues raised by the conflicts arising when there is more than one arbitration and when commercial arbitrations run in parallel with state legal procedures.

Lis Pendens in International Litigation
What legal principles apply when courts in different jurisdictions are simultaneously seised with the same dispute ? This question — of international lis pendens — has long been controversial. But it has taken on new and urgent importance in our age. Globalization has driven an unprecedented rise in forum shopping between national courts and a proliferation of new international tribunals. Problems of litispendence have spawned some of the most dramatic litigation of modern times — from anti-suit injunction battles in commercial disputes, to the appeals of prisoners on death row to international human rights tribunals. The way we respond to this challenge has profound theoretical implic...
