Conflict Period

This chapter focuses on the post-conflict period and critically assesses how investment treaty claims can interfere with the transition to peace. It questions the role of investment treaties as a facilitator of peace as well as the position that investor−state arbitration is an optimal structure for remedying conflict-related losses. Based on the assumption that large compensation awards may adversely affect the host state’s post-conflict transition, it examines different methods for adjusting post-conflict compensation modalities in light of the transitional circumstances. It further compares investor−state arbitration to other regimes for remedying conflict-related losses, and argues that in some cases, the re-emergence of state control in a dispute resolution process could be justified.

Abstract The emergency arbitrator is a person appointed to grant emergency relief pending the constitution of an arbitral tribunal. Numerous arbitral institutions started to introduce the emergency arbitrator procedure in order to provide a more effective system for the protection and preservation of parties’ rights. However, the ICSID Convention and the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules, which are the most common dispute resolution rules used in investment treaties, do not recognize the emergency arbitrator procedure. By contrast, the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce (SCC) allows the application of its emergency arbitrator rules in investment treaty disputes. In fact, there have been seven recent cases in which investors used the SCC Rules to seek emergency relief. This article evaluates introducing the emergency arbitrator procedure in investment treaty disputes. It discusses possible objections by States and concludes that the procedure is not inconsistent with the features of investment treaty disputes.

Investment Treaties

China's success in attracting foreign direct investment (FDI) in the last decade is undisputed and unprecedented. It is currently the second largest FDI recipient in the world, a success partially due to China's efforts to enter into bilateral investment treaties (BITs) and other international investment instruments. This book is a comprehensive commentary on Chinese BITs. Chinese investment treaties have typically provided international forums for settling investment disputes such as the International Centre for the Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID). Given the continuous growth of FDI in China, the emergence of state-investor disagreements in China, and the dramatic rise of investment treaty based arbitrations world wide in recent years, it is anticipated that there will be an increasing number of investment arbitrations involving the central and local governments of China. This book reviews and analyzes China's approach to foreign investment. It considers the current role of investment treaties in China's foreign economic policy, analyzes and interprets the key provisions of the BITs, and discusses the future agenda of China's investment program. It looks at how this investment regime interconnects with the domestic system and considers the implications for a foreign investor in China.
