Procedure and Evidence in International Arbitration
Central to the book’s purpose is the procedural challenge facing arbitrators at each and every stage of the arbitral process when fairness arguments conflict with efficiency concerns and trade-offs must be determined. Some key themes include how can a tribunal be fair, and in particular be neutral, if parties are so diverse? How can arbitration be made efficient and cost-effective without undue inroads into fairness and accuracy? How does a tribunal do what is best if the parties are choosing a suboptimal process? When can or must an arbitrator ignore procedural choices made by the parties? The author thoroughly evaluates competing arguments and adds his own practical tips, expertly synthe...

Arbitrability
As simple as the arbitrability question might appear (namely, what types of issues may and may not be submitted to arbitration), for a legal system to set a clear and consistent approach to arbitration, it must consider many complicated factors that relate to public policy and economic priorities as well as international relations. This comprehensive, precise, and practical book identifies and analyzes the fundamentals of, and major approaches to, arbitrability in the current international context. The authors focus on nine major arbitration jurisdictions—the United States, Canada, France, England and Wales, Switzerland, Germany, China (Mainland), Hong Kong, and Singapore—with meticulous...
The European Convention on International Commercial Arbitration

This commentary is the first comprehensive overview in English of the Convention's provisions, annexes, subsequent agreements, and relevant case law and scholarship. Following three introductory chapters—on subjective arbitrability, applicable law, and ordre public in enforcement procedures—the book provides detailed commentary and analysis o...
The Fiction of ‘State Contract’ in the Energy Industry
International Arbitration Law Library Contracts designed expressly to accommodate foreign energy investment and protect companies’ rights underlie most investor-State arbitrations when disputes over energy exploration, facilities, or distribution arise. But do the parties really use such state contracts as a protection tool? This book analyses whether signing of a state contract can be deemed the safest and most predictable way for a private party to protect its interests vis-à-vis a host state in the energy field. The author shows that because the actual level of protection is ultimately measured by how the contract is interpreted and by the outcome of a dispute, the ‘state contract’...
