Recenzje

The book by Carlo de Stefano on Attribution in International Law and Arbitration ('Book') could not be more timely. With the current number of investment arbitration cases exceeding 1,000, as well as the debate over the legitimacy of investor-State dispute settlement ('ISDS'), contentious issues, such as attribution, must be analyzed in detail. [...] The Book clearly illustrates that the general principles of attribution are applicable in investment law and arbitration and arbitral tribunals are bound by them. At the same time, the Book also confirms that there are difficulties posed by applying the rules of attribution in Practice [...] The Book is a substantial addition to the academic debate and brings clarity to the discussion concerning the rules of attribution in the context of diversified forms of entities and individuals susceptible of engaging the responsibility of a State.
