About this book:

International Arbitration in England: Perspectives in Times of Change, authored by a diverse range of practitioners, is a unique book charting a detailed consideration of the challenges and opportunities for the future of international arbitration in England. Over the past few years, the case law, practice and legal environment in which international arbitration in England is practised have all evolved and adapted to a changing world and continue to do so.

 

What’s in this book:

The choice of topics reflects and probe preoccupations of our times, including the following areas of arbitral practice:

  • virtual hearings;
  • diversity in international arbitration;
  • climate change arbitration;
  • ‘green arbitration’ practices;
  • challenges to arbitrators, with particular attention to the Supreme Court’s findings in Halliburton v. Chubb;
  • developing jurisprudence regarding enjoining foreign states in English proceedings;
  • recovery of in-house costs in English-seated international arbitrations;
  • overlapping sanctions regimes and their application to arbitral disputes in England; and
  • the role and future of third-party funding.

 

How this will help you:

This book was written during the COVID-19 pandemic which is reflected in the procedural issues which form the focus of some chapters reminding us that when it comes, change can come quickly. Consequently, the deeply informed insights in this volume, intended as they are to ensure the continued evolution and success of international arbitration in England, will be greatly appreciated by any practitioner making submissions before an arbitral tribunal. Jurists, academics and students will obtain invaluable perspectives on the future trajectory of the field.
