¸éé²õ³Ü³¾Ã©

[En anglais seulement] The old wisdom that human rights and arbitration are two unrelated dimensions of legal discourse and practice can be challenged. Indeed, there is increasing evidence that in the era of globalization human rights and arbitration do intersect in the distinct fields of (i) commercial arbitration; (ii) investor-State arbitration; and (iii) tort claims against multinational corporations. This poses novel problems, but also offers additional tools to all parties involved in the resolution of cross-border disputes.
