Summary
"The Settlement of Foreign Investment Disputes treats the subject systematically, dealing first with the internal balances within modern foreign investment contracts, the complexities that arise due to state participation or interference in these contracts, and the stances that are taken when disputes arise. It goes on to examine, in turn, the main issues involved in negotiation, arbitration and judicial settlement as the methods of settling foreign investment disputes, discussing the controversial themes in each of these methods in detail. Recognizing that the focus of attention in shifting to the misconduct of multinational corporations, the last chapter contains a discussion of the role of domestic courts."--BOOK JACKET.
