This volume contains the papers and proceedings of the fourth annual Juris conference on international investment arbitration. In this volume, once again a talented group of young authors has met the high standards set by those who contributed to the first three volumes. The Asia Pacific region has proven to be a global economic powerhouse, but more and more focused on stability and rule of law. The increasing interest in countries such as China and India in the negotiation of free trade agreements and international investment agreements (IIAs) is proof of that trend. International arbitration under IIA dispute resolution provisions is only in its first stages of development in the region with an enormous potential for future growth. The topic for the Fourth Annual Investment Treaty Arbitration conference upon which this book is based was "Investment Arbitration in the Asia-Pacific Region." It addresses some of the cutting edge issues in investment arbitration and the development of IIAs. The four topics addressed in this book balance procedural, jurisdictional and substantive law issues. While the topics are certainly contemporary, they should nonetheless remain relevant to practitioners and academics for years to come. They include: Investment Agreements Most Favored Nation Treatment Investment Protections The Future of Investment Arbitration in the Asia-Pacific Region
