International Chamber Of Commerce

This chapter traces the development of international commercial arbitration, which is often presented as a response to the demand for law and dispute resolution created naturally by an increase in transnational commerce and investment. Indeed, the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) in Paris was relatively marginal from its establishment in 1923 until the increase in global trade and commerce that came in the 1970s and 1980s. The demand naturally created the supply. Based on the recognition that this market was not inevitable, it has been argued that the rise of international commercial arbitration depended on institutional entrepreneurs around the ICC. The chapter then looks at how the relatively marginal group around the ICC that Sgard studies gained credibility and acceptance from both multinational enterprises and developing countries.

Governing Law

This introductory chapter presents New York City as the leading venue for international commercial arbitration in the United States. It estimates that at least one-third of all significant international commercial arbitrations in the United States take place within the city. New York’s role as a financial and legal capital leads to the choice of New York governing law for many commercial documents, often resulting in a choice of New York as the venue for any disputes arising from those documents. The city’s leading position in international commercial arbitration also derives from the fact that a number of leading arbitration institutions are based in New York. The local court system strongly supports international arbitration; and the community of supporting organizations, such as the New York International Arbitration Center, bar associations, universities, and others is quite strong.
