Scheu, Hofmann, Schill, & Tams: Investment Protection, Human Rights, and International Arbitration in Extraordinary Times

Julian Scheu
(Univ. of Cologne), Rainer Hofmann (Johann-Wolfgang-Goethe Universität Frankfurt), Stephan W. Schill (Univ. of Amsterdam), & Christian J. Tams (Univ. of Glasgow) have published Investment Protection, Human Rights, and International Arbitration in Extraordinary Times (Nomos 2022). The table of contents is here. Here's the abstract:
The interaction of investment protection, human rights, and international arbitration is complex. Theories on their interaction are helpful starting points. At the same time, general formulas reach their limits as soon as it comes to evaluating concrete issues. In twelve chapters, the present volume therefore analyses different thematic interactions between investment law and human rights in order to develop a more context-specific understanding.
