Summary:
"Investor-state arbitration is a treaty-based form of arbitration by which a state agrees to be the object of a claim in arbitration by a private investor who claims to have suffered financial loss as a result of violation of one or more standards of treatment set out in the treaty. The various authors in this book examine the question of whether investor-state arbitration is appropriate in international trade agreements between developed democracies with robust domestic legal systems"--Provided by publisher.
