Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "At the turn of the 20th century, a minor principality with a kingly ambition emerged from the victorious occupation of the strategic town of Riyadh by a small group of warriors led by a young man, 'Abd al-'Aziz ibn 'Abd al-Rahman Al Faysal Al Sa'ud. In the qualification of the city-oasis - riyad in Arabic is plural for rawda, green pasture, meadow, orchard - the word 'strategic' is retrospective. No one paid attention to yet another raid in the middle of the Arabian desert - a ghazwa, the tribal conquest of time immemorial. The raiders were local protagonists, according to Saudi lore some sixty members of the followers of ibn Saud, as he became known in the West many years later, battling their Rashid rivals whom they dislodged from the oasis and its surroundings. It seemed then to be the continuation of a small, insignificant turf war between tribal protagonists who had been at it for at least two centuries"--
Download or read book Investor State Dispute Settlement and International Investment Agreements written by David Price and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-06-03 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the international investment agreements and the dispute settlement mechanisms contained therein, which bind the Gulf Cooperation Council member States. The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), comprising Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates, is complex and unique. Recently, all member States have experienced increasing investor–state arbitration claims, while their nationals are increasingly instituting investor–state arbitrations to protect their own foreign investments. Intra-GCC disputes, though relatively rare, have also appeared, largely as a result of the recent Gulf crisis. While focussing particularly upon the investor–state dispute settlement experience of member States as respondents, the book also explores the experiences of their nationals as claimants to determine how they can approach investor– state dispute settlement in the future. The book also reflects on existing treaty-making practices, making recommendations for regional-level dispute settlement to improve upon investor–state dispute settlement outcomes. This book provides a detailed analysis of the global investor–state dispute settlement regime and international investment agreements, and it will be of interest to students, academics, and practitioners with an interest in international investment law and arbitration.

Download or read book Crossroads of Insolvency and Arbitration written by Ishaan Madaan and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2022-06-09 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comparative Law Yearbook of International Business, Volume 43A Each year, a Special Issue of the Comparative Law Yearbook of International Business is published under the auspices of the Center for International Legal Studies. The 2022 Special Issue addresses the intersection of arbitration and insolvency. This junction has been made all the more topical and intense by the adverse effects of Covid-19 on a broad range of businesses’ finances and supply chains, and by the still growing recourse to arbitration (and other forms of alternative dispute resolution) to resolve business disputes. A diverse pool of contributors gives a broad range of perspectives from Europe (Italy, Lithuania, the United Kingdom), the Middle East (Palestine, UAE), Asia (India), Africa (Zimbabwe), North America (Canada) and public international law on several common issues posed when one or more parties to an arbitration (agreement) are faced with a financial crisis – or vice versa when an overindebted party is expected to resolve claims that it has or faces, not in State courts but before “private” adjudicators. This Special Issue is aimed at bringing to fore the multitude of issues that exist at the convergences of the domains—a step toward better understanding the intricacies and the complexities that arise in different jurisdictions, and how stakeholders react. To highlight just a few of the aspects addressed: the law to be applied by arbitral tribunals in regard to insolvency issues; insolvency arbitrations and tax claims; how the representatives of bankrupt entities may participate in international investment claims; avoidance of transactions and anti-suit injunctions; and the uneasy but unavoidable cohabitation of insolvency and arbitration in the Middle East and North Africa Region.

Download or read book Corporate Social Responsibility Sustainable Business written by Rae Lindsay and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2020-06-17 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a dramatic departure from its voluntary origins, corporate social responsibility (CSR) is rapidly shifting to hold multinational companies accountable for more than traditional shareholder performance. This CSR movement is embracing new environmental, social and governance (ESG) frameworks that both promote global sustainability goals and enhance accountability for negative impacts businesses can have on ‘planet and people’. This collection of essays by leading businesspeople, international civil servants, legal practitioners, academics, and other experts offers a forward-looking and pragmatic perspective that illuminates the major themes in this movement towards increasingly sustainable, transparent and accountable business practices. The collection shows how CSR has evolved to account for societal pressures, environmental, climate change and human rights impacts, international policy imperatives and the practical challenges of regulating commercial activity that transcends borders. The chapters offer an in-depth examination of current issues including: international frameworks and multistakeholder initiatives catalysing foundational change; the shifting emphasis on corporate imperatives to avoid harm to third parties; trends in CSR, focused on assuring the planet's future sustainability and social stability; regulatory initiatives around the globe, including Europe, North America, Asia and Africa; and extended accountability for activities of corporate group members and supply chains. The pressure and business case for companies to incorporate CSR into corporate governance is intensifying with each quarter, shareholder meeting, and regulatory agenda. The integration of CSR and new ESG frameworks into multinational corporate strategy and operations is key to sustainable business models that can generate long-term value for the organization and all stakeholders. Their acceptance as cornerstones of 21st century business practice appears inevitable. Taking full account of the imperative for companies and their lawyers to grapple with the practical and legal challenges in this area, this volume is an invaluable and pragmatic addition to the practitioners’ toolbox at this important juncture in an ever-more dynamic field.

Download or read book Governance and Sustainability written by David Crowther and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-19 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the concepts of sustainability and governance in relation to the governance of corporations – hence the ubiquity of the term corporate governance – and other bodies. It examines how these concepts are regularly used by politicians and by the media. The two concepts are however largely treated as being separate and discrete, and given equal coverage. The argument in this book is that the two concepts are inter-related and that good governance is a prerequisite for sustainability. The focus of the book therefore is different from most, as it seeks to integrate these two important issues. The approach used in this book is based on the tradition of the Social Responsibility Research Network – a worldwide body of scholars that, over its 20-year history, has sought to broaden the discourse and to treat all research as inter-related and business-relevant. The book examines diverse aspects of the changes to corporate and institutional behaviour that have recently manifested by focusing on these two aspects of sustainable development. Thus, the authors explore engagement and partnership between organisations, in order to consider the extent to which the focus has changed so much that we need to think about new approaches to our understanding of sustainability and differing effects in practice. The international mix of authors makes this an original contribution, sharing some of the best ideas from around the world.
