The book offers a comprehensive analysis of the role, importance and place of international commercial courts in the field of international adjudication from a comparative perspective. In a time where scholarly and academic debates revolve around the issues of the role of law in the post-globalization era, the new international commercial courts seem to be in the position to bridge concerns regarding diminished sovereignty, on the one hand, and the necessity of globalizing dispute resolution, on the other. International commercial courts thus present themselves as the paradigm for the future of adjudication.
- Provides the first comprehensive account of international commercial courts in their relationship to international and domestic courts and tribunals
- Presents international commercial courts as a global institutional phenomenon, allowing conclusions to be drawn on their role in the system of international and transnational dispute settlement, as well as providing insights for policymakers on how to improve their design
- Provides theoretical and practical insights from a wide range of academics and practitioners from different jurisdictions
