International economic law (IEL) continues to evolve through dialectic processes of unilateral, bilateral, regional and worldwide regulation aimed at protecting cosmopolitan rights and transnational rule of law in mutually beneficial economic cooperation among citizens in a globalizing economy (section 1). The more transnational protection of cosmopolitan rights (e.g., human rights, trading, investor and social rights) depends on multilevel cooperation among national and international courts, the stronger becomes the need for justifying "multilevel judicial governance" by conceptions of "cosmopolitan" and "constitutional justice" rather than only by "Westphalian justice" and "commutative justice", as reciprocally agreed in treaties among States (section 2). "Fragmentation" of "IEL among States" through multilevel economic regulation and adjudication (e.g., inside free trade areas and economic communities) is a necessary strategy for reforming international law for the benefit of citizens. In order to remain legitimate and reconcile the rational self-interests of citizens with their reasonable common interests, investment arbitration must remain embedded into multilevel human rights law and respect for legitimate "constitutional pluralism" protecting cosmopolitan rights, transnational "participatory" and "deliberative democracy" and rule of law through "consistent interpretations" and "judicial comity" among national and international courts of justice (section 3).

Im Fokus der Arbeit steht das Rechtsinstitut des vorläufigen Rechtsschutzes im internationalen Investitionsschutzrecht. Art. 47 der ICSID-Konvention (ICSID) wird anhand der bisherigen Rechtssprechungspraxis der ICSID-Schiedsgerichte eingehend untersucht und in den größeren Kontext zu vorläufigen Maßnahmen nach Art. 41 des IGH-Statuts und Art. 26 der UNCITRAL-Regeln gestellt. Vor dem Hintergrund immer noch bestehender Unsicherheiten über die Auslegung des Art. 47 ICSID macht sich die Arbeit zum Ziel, für den Rechtsanwender klare Leitlinien zu schaffen, wie ein Antrag auf Anordnung vorläufiger Maßnahmen gestellt werden muss, um erfolgreich zu sein. Nachdem die Voraussetzungen der Norm anhand von Fallbeispielen konkretisiert werden, werden die Fragen der Bindungswirkung sowie der Anerkennungs- und Durchsetzungsfähigkeit von Anordnungen nach Art. 47 ICSID geklärt. Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt der Arbeit ist die Analyse des Rechtsinstituts des Notfallschiedsrichters (sog. emergency arbitrator). The dissertation focuses on interim measures protection in international investment arbitration. It analyzes the case law on Art. 47 of the ICSID Convention (ICSID) and puts the provision into the broader context of interim measures protection under Art. 41 of the ICJ Statute and Art. 26 of the UNCITRAL Rules. In light of the still exisiting uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of Art. 47 ICSID, the dissertation aims at defining clear guidelines on how to couch a successful request for the issuance of provisional measures by defining the prerequisits of and legal consequences resulting from Art. 47 ICSID. Further, the dissertation deals with topical questions regarding the bindingness as well as the recognition and enforcement of provisional measures orders. Finally, the emergency arbitrator - a prominentfeature recently introduced in

On July 2, 1986, the Dutch Parliament adopted a statute modernizing Dutch law on arbitration. Although it does not technically distinguish between domestic and international arbitration, this statute, following the trend initiated by the United Kingdom [1979 Arbitration Act, 18 I.L.M. 1249 (1979)], France [Decree of May 12, 1981, 20 I.L.M. 917 (1981)], and Belgium [March 27, 1985 Statute, 25 I.L.M. 725 (1986)], clearly purports to liberalize Dutch law on international arbitration. The travaux preparatoires states that it does not substantially depart from the UNCITRAL Model Law on International Commercial Arbitration [24 I.L.M. 1302 (1985)]. The statute came into force on December 1, 1986, and applies to pending arbitration cases.
