Recenzje

'This well researched book successfully attempts to analyse a trend which significantly shapes today's international investment law in a comprehensive way and from various perspectives. It will be definitely of value to academics and practitioners of international economic law, as well as those interested in an evidence of current state practice with regard to protection of economic interests of their subjects abroad.'
