Towards Consistency in International Investment Jurisprudence
Investor-State arbitration is currently a much-debated topic, both within the legal community and in the public at large. In Towards Consistency in International Investment Jurisprudence, Katharina Diel-Gligor addresses the alleged proliferation of inconsistent decision-making in this field – one of the main points of concern raised in the ongoing discussions. After exploring whether such criticism is appropriate at all, she goes on to examine the different causes, forms, and manifestations of the inconsistencies that exist through a detailed analysis of ICSID arbitration. The author then canvasses possible approaches to reform and concludes that an ICSID preliminary ruling system – the practicalities of which are set out in the study – is a suitable means for enhancing consistency in investment arbitration and moving towards a jurisprudence constante.
Consequences of Impaired Consent Transfers

This book is a re-publication of a work first published by Mohr Siebeck in Germany.

Die Praxis der spätmittelalterlichen Laiengerichtsbarkeit
Die Studie untersucht das Phänomen der spätmittelalterlichen Oberhöfe am Beispiel der Gerichte in Frankfurt, Gelnhausen und Ingelheim in vergleichender Perspektive. Dabei rekonstruiert der Autor die Entstehung, Wirkungsweise und grundsätzliche Funktionsmechanismen von mit nichtstudierten Schöffen (»Laien«) besetzten Oberhöfen und zeigt ihre Bedeutung als neue Vernetzung der Gerichte innerhalb vielschichtiger Gerichtslandschaften. Er arbeitet heraus, dass größere Oberhöfe letztlich in zwei Richtungen wirken konnten, nämlich einerseits nach innen, indem sie eine organisierte, binnenstrukturierte, in gewisser Weise »professionalisierte« Gerichtsbarkeit notwendig machten. Andererseits konnten sie teilweise in ihrem jeweiligen Einzugsgebiet nach außen rechtsvereinheitlichend wirken, indem sie anderen Gerichten Rechtsauskunft gaben.
