The Regulation Of Investment In The Tpp - Towards A Defining International Agreement For The Asia-Pacific Region, Julien Chaisse
The Regulation Of Investment In The Tpp - Towards A Defining International Agreement For The Asia-Pacific Region, Julien Chaisse
Julien Chaisse
The TPP investment chapter resembles in large measure the more recent US IIAs rather than the 1995 text of NAFTA Chapter 11. In a nutshell, the TPP investment chapter does not offer major innovations in terms of treaty drafting. However, the TPP crystallizes most recent innovations since 2001 in terms of NAFTA interpreting notes and also reflects developments in arbitral case-law. The normative quality and geographic scope of the TPP, however, places the agreement among the most detailed and important investment treaties. In this light, it is possible to return to the question raised in the beginning of this chapter …
Carl Schmitt's Critique Of Liberalism And The European Union, Kyle S. Herman
Carl Schmitt's Critique Of Liberalism And The European Union, Kyle S. Herman
Dr. Kyle S. Herman
I invoke Carl Schmitt's Critique of Liberalism outlined in "The Concept of the Political" to better understand the European Union (EU) as a governmental institution. It is my contention that the EU is a liberal institution, with the sole intent to drive economic policy while ignoring identity, similar to what Schmitt rails against in his critique of liberalism. For that reason I demonstrate how the EU fits well into the mold Schmitt laid out to identify liberal politics. Therefore I use Schmitt's critique as both a starting point for defining the European Union and, by superimposing his critique onto the …
The Antinomies Of The (Continued) Relevance Of Icsid To The Third World, Ibironke T. Odumosu
The Antinomies Of The (Continued) Relevance Of Icsid To The Third World, Ibironke T. Odumosu
San Diego International Law Journal
The international law on foreign investment is commonly accepted as one of the most controversial areas of international law. Not only does international investment law lack clear rules on investment promotion and protection, this area of the law has always generated opposing rules, and implicates divergent interests in the process. In the face of unclear rules, and against the backdrop of the need to protect foreign investment through the internationalization of investment dispute settlement, and the position that this will facilitate investment flows to Third World states, the World Bank established the International Centre for the Settlement of Investment Disputes …
Implementing Wto Rules Through Negotiations And Sanction: The Role Of Trade Policy Review Mechanism And Dispute Settlement System, Julien Chaisse, Debashis Chakraborty
Implementing Wto Rules Through Negotiations And Sanction: The Role Of Trade Policy Review Mechanism And Dispute Settlement System, Julien Chaisse, Debashis Chakraborty
Julien Chaisse
Based on economic and legal perspectives, the current paper aims to analyze how the World Trade Organization combines negotiations and sanctions to ensure the implementation of its law. While the Trade Policy Review mechanism at the WTO deals with the WTO-compatibility of the trade policy of a particular member in question, the prevalence of such policies can be successfully challenged at the Dispute Settlement Body which makes decisions on trade disputes between governments that are adjudicated by the WTO. The TPR can play a major role in this framework, providing developing and less-developed countries valuable input on the WTO-compatibility of …
Principles Of Fairness For International Economic Treaties: Constructivism And Contractualism, John Linarelli
Principles Of Fairness For International Economic Treaties: Constructivism And Contractualism, John Linarelli
Scholarly Works
No legal system deserving of continued support can exist without an adequate theory of justice. A world trade constitution cannot credibly exist without a clear notion of justice upon which to base a consensus. This paper examines two accounts of fairness found in moral philosophy, those of John Rawls and Tim Scanlon. The Rawlsian theory of justice is well-known to legal scholars. Scanlon's contractualist account may be less well-known. The aim of the paper is to start the discussion as to how fairness theories can be used to develop the tools for examining international economic policies and institutions. After elaborating …
