2015 Recommended Readings

Below is a list of readings recommended by lecturers. The list will continue to expand as we receive further suggestions.

Professor Donald Francis Donovan (short bio) General Course – Investor-State Arbitration as Global Governance

First Class: Diplomatic Protection and the Origins of Investor-State Arbitration
This class will examine the early historical origins of investor protection through international law. We will introduce customary international law, the original source of investor protection, and consider in particular how diplomatic protection of aliens emerged as a basis for investor protection. As part of that consideration, we will consider nationality as applied to both natural persons and corporations.

Second Class: Fora and Consent in Contemporary Investor-State Arbitration
This class will examine the contemporary regime of investor-state arbitration, with a focus on ICSID, the leading institution for arbitrating international investment claims. The class will also introduce the two main forms of arbitration: institutional and ad hoc. Finally, we will consider consent to arbitration, which may be provided through a contract, an investment treaty, or a national investment law.

Third Class: Subject Matter Jurisdiction
To fall within the subject matter jurisdiction of an investment arbitration tribunal, the dispute at issue must arise out of an “investment.” While most bilateral investment treaties define the term, the ICSID Convention famously does not. This class explores the scope of the term “investment” as interpreted by arbitral tribunals.

Fourth Class: Personal Jurisdiction and Denial of Benefits
This class focuses on requirements ratione personae—the requirements a party must meet in order to be a proper party in an investment arbitration proceeding. Specifically, we will examine the requirements ratione personae set forth in the ICSID Convention and in bilateral investment treaties. We will consider Article 25(2)(b) of the ICSID Convention, which reflects an important innovation by the drafters permitting locally incorporated but foreign-controlled companies to be claimants in ICSID arbitrations.

We will also touch on denial of benefits. Some treaties contain provisions that permit a State to deny the “benefits” of a treaty to certain investors, such as companies that have no real connection to the host State, or so-called “mailbox” companies. Some tribunals have viewed denial of benefits as a jurisdictional issue, while others have considered it as a question of admissibility.
