This book offers a unique analysis of bilateral investment treaties
(BITs). By developing a new, power-focused paradigm for
understanding the international investment framework, the author
illustrates why there was no paradoxical behaviour when developing
countries agreed to the BIT regime, and what has spurred their
reaction against it now. She also examines how attempts to regulate
investment at a multilateral level have failed, and why the rules
of the framework are evolving. Inspired by the work of Susan
Strange, Gwynn fills a significant lacuna in our understanding of
these issues by demonstrating how power determines the actions of
all those involved. This holistic reinterpretation of international
investment focuses in particular on Latin America, but has wider
implications for the negotiation of new treaties, including such
controversial provisions as the Transatlantic Trade and Investment
Partnership. It will appeal to lawyers, economists, political
scientists and scholars of Latin America.
