This book presents the reflections of a group of researchers
interested in assessing whether the law governing the promotion and
protection of foreign investment reflects sound public policy.
Whether it is the lack of "checks and balances" on investor rights
or more broadly the lack of balance between public rights and
private interests, the time is ripe for an in-depth discussions of
current challenges facing the international investment law
regime.
Through a survey of the evolution in IIA treaty-making and an
evaluation from different perspectives, the authors take stock of
developments in international investment law and analyze potential
solutions to some of the criticisms that plague IIAs. The book
takes a multidisciplinary approach to the subject, with expert
analysis from legal, political and economic scholars. The first
part of the book traces the evolution of IIA treaty-making whilst
the other three parts are organised around the concepts of
efficiency, legitimacy and sustainability. Each contributor
analyzes one or more issues related to substance, treaty
negotiation, or dispute resolution, with the ultimate aim of
improving IIA treaty-making in these respects.
Improving International Investment Agreements will be of
particular interest to students and academics in the fields of
International Investment Law, International Trade Law, Business and
Economics.
