The dualistic nature of arbitration, i.e., being judicial and contractual, raises the question of how to set the standard of independence and impartiality in arbitration. On the one hand, arbitrators are decision makers similar to judges. On the other hand, they solve disputes outside the courtroom and are (often) appointed by the parties due to their individual expertise.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAgainst this backdrop, this book analyses the state of play of independence and impartiality. It provides an overview of the current status of independence and impartiality applied in international commercial arbitration, focusing on case law from France, Germany, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The core themes are possible grounds for finding dependence and partiality and their streamline in theoretical standards of independence and impartiality. Additionally, consequences of independence and impartiality are addressed, including the obligation to disclose.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is useful for practitioners and scholars alike. It may help counsels preparing a challenge, arbitrators defining their obligation to disclose, and scholars analysing independence and impartiality on a more general basis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Abbreviations; Acknowledgements; Introduction; 1 Introduction to International Commercial Arbitration; 2 Applicable Laws, Rules, and Guidelines; 3 Overview of the Compared Legal Systems; 4 Conflicts of Interest; 5 Other Potential Grounds for Challenge or Annulment Based on Dependence and Partiality; 6 The Applicable Standard of Independence and Impartiality; 7 Consequences; 8 Conclusion and Outlook; Bibliography; Table of Cases; Index","brand":"Eleven International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53212620587351,"sku":"9789462362079","price":95.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/independence-and-impartiality-in-international-commercial-arbitration-an-analysis-with-comparative-references-to-english-french-german-swiss-and-united-states-law-9789462362079","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
