This book was released on 2008 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the product of a conference that provided an analysis of the initiatives seeking to integrate small and medium economies of the ACP (African, Caribbean, and Pacific group of nations) with the powerful forces of the greater markets, such as the European Union. Least developed nations tend to represent a vulnerable side in trade relations with greater economies, thus increasing a need to encourage the use of responsible trade practices and creating integration in a manner supporting the most vulnerable while guaranteeing the investments. Arbitration and mediation mechanisms play a decisive roll, providing an alternative to the imparity of justice administration in the different regions.

This book was released on 2009-10-31 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FOREWORD This volume contains the Award of the Arbitral Tribunal established under Annex VII of the 1982 United Nations Convention of the Law of Sea (“UNCLOS,” “the Convention”) in the matter between Barbados and Trinidad and Tobago concerning the delimitation of the exclusive economic zone and continental shelf in the Caribbean Sea region that separates the two island nations. This Award, delivered on April 11, 2006, was the first ever rendered in a maritime delimitation submitted to arbitration pursuant to the dispute settlement provisions found in Part XV of UNCLOS. The Convention, which came into force on November 16, 1994, was concluded to provide a regulatory framework for the use of the world’s seas and oceans, to ensure the conservation and eq- table usage of resources and the marine environment, and to ensure the prot- tion and conservation of the living resources of the sea. The Convention provides, in effect, for a system of compulsory recourse to arbitration in the event of d- pute between two signatory States. Ad hoc arbitration under Annex VII of UNCLOS is the default means of dispute settlement if a State has not expressed any preference for the alternative means of dispute resolution available under Article 287 of the Convention, and has not made any reservation or optional exceptions pursuant to Article 298. This arbitration was initiated in February 2004 by Barbados, after three - cades of unsuccessful attempts by the two States to agree on the issues involved.
Download or read book Alternative Dispute Resolution written by Albert Fiadjoe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-03-04 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights the tremendous shift in the traditional arrangements for the delivery of civil justice in the Commonwealth Caribbean, from litigation to alternative dispute resolution (ADR) processes. Over the last quarter of a century, much learning has taken place on the topic of ADR and the literature on the subject is now voluminous. This book puts forward the thesis that the peculiar experiences of the developing world ought to help reshape our traditional notions of ADR. Furthermore, the impact of globalisation on the developing world has brought with it special and peculiar challenges to our notions of civil and criminal justice which are not replicated elsewhere. This book will appeal to a wide readership. The legal profession, students of law and politics, social scientists, mediators, the police, state officers and the public at large will find its contents of interest.

Book excerpt: In Jamaica, the Caribbean and internationally, the process of arbitration as an alternative to court action in settling disputes is no longer the subject of an esoteric debate but increasingly is becoming a standard requirement in both government and private-sector contracts. In the process of numerous and varied activities in this field, a great deal of experience and knowledge has been acquired by the author.

It is in response to those requests that this book has been written. The volume is annotated with practical solutions, not often found in most textbooks on this subject, to frequently asked questions of the author over the years concerning general practice and management of the process of arbitrations.

Download or read book International Arbitration written by Ben Beaumont and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2022-12-09 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the spirit of Pieter Sanders’s classic Quo Vadis Arbitration? (1999), this far-reaching overview of the state of international arbitration thoroughly assesses the current condition and prospects of arbitration and conciliation with practical, insightful solutions to the new and emerging problems confronting arbitration practice today. A distinguished group of internationally renowned arbitrators, academics, and lawmakers elucidate the ubiquitous evolution towards increased technical complexity, the need for multi-focal and multi-cultural approaches, and the tension between desirable simplicity and indispensable precision that have come to characterize current arbitral practice and procedure. Among the topics covered are the following: remote hearings; reliance on digital technology; cost of arbitration in a post-COVID world; extension of the arbitration agreement to non-signatories; tailoring of ADR techniques to suit the needs of micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises; jurisdictions emerging as new arbitration hubs, e.g., Delaware, the Caribbean, Scotland; evolution of a code of conduct for adjudicators in investment disputes; and the reform of bilateral investment treaties. As Sanders’s 1999 book did at the time, the chapters identify specific improvements and refinements to the entire system as it has developed over recent decades. The book will be a go-to resource for the arbitration community worldwide as a stocktaking of current and ongoing trends in international arbitration. It will enthuse the many lawyers, judges, legislators, and businesspeople to whom it is addressed.
Download or read book Third Party Funding in International Arbitration written by Lisa Bench Nieuwveld and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2016-04-24 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the first edition of this invaluable book in 2012, third-party funding has become more mainstream in international arbitration practice. However, since even the existence of a third-party funding agreement in a dispute is often kept secret, it can be difficult to glean the specifics of successful funding agreements. This welcome book, now updated, expertly reveals the nuances of third-party funding in international arbitration, examines the phenomenon in key jurisdictions, and provides a reliable resource for users and potential users that may wish to tap into and make use of this distinctive funding tool. Focusing on Australia, the United Kingdom, the United States, Germany, the Netherlands, Canada, and South Africa, the authors analyze and assess the legal regime based upon legislation, judicial opinions, ethics opinions, and practitioner anecdotes describing the state of third-party funding in each jurisdiction. In addition to updating summaries of the law of the various jurisdictions, the second edition includes a new chapter addressing third-party funding in investor-state arbitration. Among the issues raised and examined are the following: · payment of adverse costs; · “Before-the-Event” (BTE) and “After-the-Event” (ATE) insurance; · attorney financing: pro bono representation, contingency representation, conditional fee arrangements; · loans; · ethical doctrines affecting the third-party funding industry; · possible future bundling, securitization, and trading of legal claims; · risk that the funder may put its own interests ahead of the client’s interests; and · whether the existence of a funding agreement must or should be disclosed to the decision maker. The second edition also includes discussion of recent institutional developments as they relate to third-party funding, including the work of the ICCA-Queen Mary Task Force on Third-Party Funding and how third-party funding is being incorporated into arbitral rules and investment treaties. Ably providing a thorough understanding of what third-party funding entails and what legal parameters exist, this book will be of compelling interest to parties aiming to take advantage of the high values, speed, reduced evidentiary costs, outcome predictability, industry expertise, and high award enforceability characteristic of the third-party funding arrangements available in international arbitration.
