It considers the extent to which significant states in Asia are, or could become, ?rule makers? rather than ?rule takers? regarding corruption and serious illegality in investor-state arbitration. Corruption and illegality in international investment are widely condemned in any society, but there remains a lack of consensus on the consequences, especially in investment arbitration. A core issue addressed is whether a foreign investor violating a host state?s law should be awarded protection of its investment, as per its contract with the host state and/or the applicable investment or trade agreement between the home state and the host state. Some suggest such protection would be unnecessary as the investor committed a crime in the host state, while others attempt to establish an equilibrium between the investor and the host state. Others claim to protect investment, invoking the sanctity of promises made. The book starts with a deep dive into economic and legal issues in corruption and investment arbitration and then explores the situation and issues in major countries in the region in detail. It is a useful reference point for lawyers, economists, investors, and government officials who are seeking comprehensive and up-to-date information on anti-bribery rules in Asian investment treaties. It is of particular interest to students and researchers in economics, finance, and law, who are undertaking new research relating to the multifaceted impacts of corruption. 410 0$aAsia in Transition,$x2364-8260 ;$v22 606 $aAsia$xEconomic conditions 606 $aCommercial law 606 $aMediation 606 $aDispute resolution (Law) 606 $aArbitration (Administrative law) 606 $aEconomics 606 $aFinance 606 $aInternational law 606 $aTrade regulation 606 $aAsian Economics 606 $aBusiness Law 606 $aDispute Resolution, Mediation, Arbitration 606 $aPolitical Economy and Economic Systems 606 $aFinancial Economics 606 $aInternational Economic Law, Trade Law 615 0$aAsia$xEconomic conditions. 615 0$aCommercial law. 615 0$aMediation. 615 0$aDispute resolution (Law) 615 0$aArbitration (Administrative law) 615 0$aEconomics. 615 0$aFinance. 615 0$aInternational law. 615 0$aTrade regulation. 615 14$aAsian Economics. 615 24$aBusiness Law. 615 24$aDispute Resolution, Mediation, Arbitration. 615 24$aPolitical Economy and Economic Systems. 615 24$aFinancial Economics. 615 24$aInternational Economic Law, Trade Law. 676 $a330.95 700 $aTeramura$b Nobumichi$01737881 701 $aNottage$b Luke$01672817 701 $aJetin$b Bruno$01282337 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910850886403321 996 $aCorruption and Illegality in Asian Investment Arbitration$94159827 997 $aUNINA
