International Investment Arbitration

This book project, arising from the Second Bucerius Conference on International Investment Law & Arbitration (BCILA), aims to explore diverse methodological approaches to address challenges in investment law and arbitration.

Featuring the work of emerging scholars and practitioners in the field, the book bridges the gap between academic analysis and legal practice in the field of investment arbitration. As a central pillar of international economic law, investment arbitration is extensively utilized worldwide. The book discusses the challenges of managing progressively intricate proceedings whilst investment arbitration undergoes intense public scrutiny amid fervent political discourse. It tackles investment arbitration’s constant evolution and provides possible solutions in navigating this evolution.

With both academic and practical applications, this book will be of interest to students, scholars, and practitioners in international investment arbitration, public international and finance law.
