Publisher: OUP USA

This is a significant book from two experienced international arbitrators, with sections contributed by specialists in this complex field. While concentrating on international commercial arbitration in New York, the book is of general application to international commercial arbitration worldwide.
International arbitrator Gerald Aksen points out in his foreword that the subject matter of the book is relevant “whether you are in London, New York or Paris”. He adds that international arbitration “is popular because no one has yet figured out a better method of settling disputes in the context of international commercial relations with a modicum of confidentiality and an effective means of enforcing the resultant decision”.
Legal monologue
The editors, two members of the New York Bar, invited colleagues to contribute 13 separate “legal monologues”. Much of what is contained in the 13 chapters is of specific relevance to New York arbitration.
