States signed thousands of largely similar international investment agreements (IIAs) to protect the property of their investors abroad. Most of these IIAs allowed foreign investors to sue host states via investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) for treaty breaches. ISDS was barely used until the late 1990s. When ISDS claims finally surged, states realized that their treaties offered greater investment protection than intended. States reacted by narrowing the commitments offered in newly concluded agreements. This backlash against investment arbitration resulted in a "new generation" of IIAs that rebalanced investment protection and host state regulatory autonomy"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Investments, Foreign $x Law and legislation. 650 0 $a Investments, Foreign (International law) 650 0 $a International commercial arbitration. 650 0 $a International and municipal law. 650 6 $a Investissements etrangers (Droit international) $0 (CaQQLa)201-0045068 650 6 $a Droit international et droit interne. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0039294 650 7 $a International and municipal law. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00976759 650 7 $a International commercial arbitration. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01377215 650 7 $a Investments, Foreign (International law) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00978411 650 7 $a Investments, Foreign $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00978387 776 08 $i Online version: $a Alschner, Wolfgang. $t Investment arbitration and state-driven reform $d New York : Oxford University Press, [2021] $z 9780197644409 $w (DLC) 2021061261 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20230217010732.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DA4A34AAAE9011EDA0B1416654ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
