In light of the freedom that the disputing parties and the arbitrators have when designating the applicable law, and because of the hybrid nature of legal relationship between investors and states, there is significant interplay between the national and the international legal order in investor-state arbitration. The book contains a comprehensive analysis of the relevant jurisprudence, legal instruments, and scholarship surrounding arbitral practice with respect to the application of national law and international law. It investigates the awards in which tribunals referred to consistency between the legal orders, and suggests alternatives to the traditional doctrines of monism and dualism to explain the relationship between the national and the international legal order. The book also addresses the territorialized or internationalized nature of the tribunals; relevant choice-of-law rules and methodologies; and the scope of the arbitration agreement, including the possibility of host states presenting counterclaims in investment treaty arbitration. Ultimately, it argues that in investor-state arbitration, national and international law do not only coexist but may be applied simultaneously; they are also interdependent, each complementing and informing the other both indirectly and directly for a larger common good: enforcement of rights and obligations regardless of their national or international origin. 606 $aLaw / Conflict of Laws$2bisacsh 606 $aLaw / International$2bisacsh 606 $aLaw / Commercial / International Trade$2bisacsh 606 $aLaw 615 7$aLaw / Conflict of Laws 615 7$aLaw / International 615 7$aLaw / Commercial / International Trade 615 0$aLaw. 700 $aKjos$b Hege Elisabeth$0914999 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910917298903321 996 $aApplicable law in investor-state arbitration$92050493 997 $aUNINA
