Description

- A broad ranging, completely comprehensive, and critical assessment of international law on foreign investment

- Discusses the major approaches to the substantive issues of foreign investment such as the most-favoured-nation principle, state responsibility, and competition law

- Examines procedural issues such as alternative dispute resolution and consent to arbitration, making this pertinent to practitioners as well as academics

The Oxford Handbooks series is a major new initiative in academic publishing. Each volume offers an authoritative and state-of-the-art survey of current thinking and research in a particular subject area. Specially commissioned essays from leading international figures in the discipline give critical examinations of the progress and direction of debates. Oxford Handbooks provide scholars and graduate students with compelling new perspectives upon a wide range of subjects in the humanities and social sciences.

The Oxford Handbook of International Investment Law aims to provide the first truly exhaustive account of the current state and future development of this important and topical field of international law.

The Handbook is divided into three main parts. Part One deals with fundamental conceptual issues, Part Two deals with the main substantive areas of law, and Part Three deals with the major procedural issues arising out of the settlement of international investment disputes.

The book has a policy-oriented introduction, setting the more technical chapters that follow in their policy environment within which contemporary norms for international foreign investment law are evolving. The Handbook concludes with a chapter written by the editors to highlight the major conclusions of the collection, to identify trends in the existing law, and to look forward to the future development of this field.

Readership: Academics, scholars, advanced students of public international law; financial law, taxation and commercial law; and international economic & trade law. Also practitioners involved with corporate finance, and the regulation of investment arbitration.
