This book was released on 2024-01-22 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although considered a somewhat ‘hazy’ concept (particularly in common law), good faith may nevertheless be defined as a duty incumbent on a person negotiating or performing an agreement. Thus, it may be understood as obligatory on all parties in the conduct of arbitral proceedings. In this collection of expert chapters, notable jurists and legal academics from around the world fully investigate the multifaceted notion of good faith in international arbitration. All the following aspects of the matter are covered: detailed analysis of good faith in both common law and civil law traditions as reflected in doctrine, scholarship, and case law; good faith implications in treaty interpretation; using good faith as a negative defence against claims or as a positive basis for claims; good faith in the specific field of international investment arbitration; procedural aspects of the parties’ obligation to act in good faith during pre-arbitral negotiations, conciliation, and mediation, as well as during the arbitral proceedings; the duty of arbitrators and arbitral institutions to act in good faith; and the role of good faith in actions to set aside. As an authoritative survey and analysis of how the concept of good faith has been applied in international arbitration – and defined in the case law relevant to it – this matchless book provides invaluable guidance to parties involved in international arbitral proceedings.

Expertly negotiating a complex principle, this book diligently follows the arbitral process from jurisdiction through merits and to cost decisions, identifying the various applications of good faith in investment disputes. The author offers detailed analyses of the role of good faith in defining nationality and investor as well as in pre-dispute admissibility requirements. The study then delves into the ways the principle guides parties' arguments and informs tribunals' decisions regarding evidence, substantive protections, and costs. It further addresses the role of good faith in the behaviour of arbitrators and other actors. This is a guide for anyone wishing to understand this important principle that has accompanied the developing system of international investment law.

Download or read book Good Faith and International Economic Law written by Andrew D. Mitchell and published by International Economic Law. This book was released on 2015 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past two decades have seen a significant proliferation of trade and investment treaties around the world. States are increasingly negotiating agreements that regulate both trade and investment, such as the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement and the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership. The number of investor-state dispute settlement cases is growing dramatically each year, yet states' enthusiasm for investor-state arbitration has become more qualified as concern has intensified that the system can be abused by foreign investors. Good faith is therefore becoming increasingly important as a principle, particularly in the investment context, due to disputes about investor conduct such as corporate restructuring in order to gain the protection of a particular investment treaty regarding an existing or foreseeable dispute, and States' responses to public policy concerns through attempts to modify or terminate investment treaties in the face of ongoing or expected claims. Tribunals adjudicating investment disputes have used the principle of good faith in a haphazard and uncoordinated manner, causing serious problems of uncertainty and inconsistency. In response to these developments, this book contains the first comprehensive and integrated analysis of the treatment of good faith in international investment law, noting the broader implications of good faith in public international law and international trade law.

Download or read book Good Faith in International Law written by Robert Kolb and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a great degree of controversy on the proper complexion and role of general principles of law in the international legal order. Opinions range from total rejection of some types of principles to the most enthusiastic endorsement of principles as the necessary oil for the many complex wheels of the legal order. In this book one of the leading public lawyers of his generation explores the concept of good faith and its role in international law. Rather than offer a detailed, comprehensive examination, Kolb aims to map the true points of gravity of the principle of good faith in the international legal order. In so doing, he illustrates how the various legal institutions who operate in the sphere of public international law allow the principle of good faith to unfold.
Download or read book Good Faith and International Economic Law written by Andrew D. Mitchell and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Good faith is a doctrine that is readily accepted in legal systems. Yet, its distinct meaning has always been elusive. Ideas such as justice and equity are omnipresent in the law. Good faith is counted among such ideas. Their function has been to provide a corrective approach in situations where the strict application of the law has unacceptable results. They are also used to support a decision-maker's conclusions on difficult issues where other solutions are equally possible. In these situations, good faith and similar ideas become rationalizations for the results arrived at. Defined or explained in this way, their existence in the law may be desirable. But put differently, these nebulous doctrines exist in the law to aid in finding subjective solutions to difficult issues, which may come to be justified through the use of such lofty notions. The latter conclusion immediately invites the criticism that the doctrine of good faith is capable of manipulation in order to justify a variety of inconsistent results. Critics argue that the subjectivity inherent in these concepts makes their use of doubtful significance. They have such a variable meaning that they could be used to support a variety of conclusions and befuddle the law in its search for certainty. Having in itself no power to lead to conclusions, the purpose of a concept such as good faith may be misguided: that of justifying conflicting solutions to difficult problems. This book demonstrates the range of scholarly views applicable to good faith in international investment law and the questions that remain to be answered.

The monograph offers a valuable insight into the practice and theory of contract interpretation in investment treaty arbitration. By proposing a theoretical frame for seamless integration of contract interpretation into the overall structure of decision-making, the book contributes to predictability, coherence, sufficiency and correctness of the tribunals’ interpretative practices in investment treaty arbitration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "They say it unwise to embark upon too large of a project in a dissertation. In fact, one should not consider a doctoral thesis to be something like a life's work. And, whatever one does, one should choose a discrete topic and stay away from the lure of insoluble theoretical morasses. As I always was more obstinate than clever, I disregarded all advice and plunged into the work you are about to read. The question I am trying to address has been with me for more than twenty-five years. It is the question that convinced to study philosophy before attempting to learn the law. It is the question that - as a bilingual perennial immigrant working in a foreign language since age seventeen - has bedeviled me for my entire adult life: how can we engage with each other and take each other seriously in all of our difference when we lack any common denominator - linguistic, ethical, cultural, social, philosophical or legal? The possibility of such an endeavor has always been a matter of Faith, faith in our ability to see the human dignity in each other, faith that our shared humanity might overcome even the most impossible of obstacles, faith that what is good in each of us will help us bridge what is peculiar"--

This book was released on 2013-08-01 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ***NO SALES RIGHTS IN SWITZERLAND*** This second edition of the first comprehensive commentary on the Swiss Rules of International Arbitration covers the new version of these rules which entered into force on 1 June 2012. It is a practical guide for arbitrators, counsel, state courts and persons involved in the conduct and administration of arbitral proceedings under the Swiss Rules. This commentary presents the new version of the Swiss Rules from a double perspective. On the one hand, it emphasizes the relationship between these Rules and the Swiss legal regime governing international arbitration, namely the provisions of chapter 12 of the Swiss Private International Law Statute. On the other hand, it puts these Rules in an international perspective by comparing them with the corresponding provisions of the other major institutional rules (ICC, LCIA, SCC, DIS, VIAC, SIAC, HKIAC, CIETAC, AAA/ ICDR, WIPO and ICSID) and with the provisions of the former edition of the rules. Finally, it highlights the main differences between the Swiss Rules and the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules which were revised in 2010. This book is written by arbitration practitioners based in Switzerland who work with established law firms, widely experienced in international commercial arbitration. It is the work of a refreshing new generation of Swiss arbitration specialists. Two of the editors were members of the working group for the revision of the Swiss Rules and thus bring special insight into the book about the revision process.
