Samenvatting

The book assesses the principles of international investment law in contemporary international investment rule-making and the underlying arbitral practice. While delving into the fragmentation in international investment rule-making and the attendant legitimacy challenges, the book proffers options for normative coherence. The analysis transcends the principles and practice of international investment law and contextualises competing norms, namely: environmental sustainability, labour rights, business and human rights, corporate social responsibility and sustainable development.

The book targets students, instructors, practitioners and policy makers in the fields of International Investment Law, International Economic Law, Oil and Gas Law, Petroleum Law and Energy and Natural Resources Law. The extensive coverage of the regulatory frameworks of international investment from national, regional and international perspectives makes the book a vital material for teaching in every university.

The book presents complementarities between the principles and prac¬tice and offers a roadmap for the future.

        AI-book

        Wat is een AI-book?

        Een AI-book is niet een boek dat geschreven is door AI maar een boek dat verrijkt is met AI. Het maakt de inhoud van een boek interactief via WhatsApp, zodat je ermee kunt chatten. Zie het als een razend slimme assistent die het boek perfect begrijpt en er alles uit onthouden heeft. Jij kunt deze assistent alles vragen. Vraag bijvoorbeeld hoe je iets kunt toepassen op jouw persoonlijke situatie, om een korte samenvatting, of wat de belangrijkste inzichten zijn. AI-books zijn alleen te gebruiken via WhatsApp, je hoeft er geen aparte app voor te installeren.
