Investment Treaty Arbitration:
Balancing Sovereignty and Investor
Protection
By
Shahid Jamal Tubrazy
Welcome to "Investment
Treaty Arbitration: Balancing Sovereignty and Investor Protection." This
book delves into the intricate realm of investment treaty arbitration,
exploring the delicate equilibrium between the sovereign rights of states and
the safeguarding of investors' interests. As I embark on this journey, I invite
you to explore the dynamic interplay between international law, economics, and
policy that shapes the investment arbitration landscape.
The landscape of international
investment is ever-evolving, and the need for effective mechanisms to resolve
disputes is paramount. Investment treaty arbitration has emerged as a critical
forum for addressing conflicts between states and foreign investors, presenting
a platform where legal, economic, and ethical considerations converge. This
book aims to illuminate the nuanced complexities of this field, shedding light
on the principles, mechanisms, and challenges that define it.
Through the chapters of this
book, I navigate the historical evolution of investment treaties, the
principles underpinning them, and the disputes that have shaped their
interpretation. I examine the competing interests of host states and investors,
analyzing how tribunals strike a balance between protecting investments and
respecting state sovereignty. Additionally, I delve into the contemporary
debates and reforms that are reshaping the landscape, paving the way for a more
equitable and responsive system.
