This open access book focuses on public actors with a role in the settlement of investment disputes. Traditional studies on actors in international investment law have tended to concentrate on arbitrators, claimant investors and respondent states. Yet this focus on the "principal" players in investment dispute settlement has allowed a number of other seminal actors to be neglected. This book seeks to redress this imbalance by turning the spotlight on the latter. From the investor's home state to domestic courts, from sub-national governments to international organisations, and from political risk insurance agencies to legal defence teams in national ministries, the book critically reviews these overlooked public actors in international investment law.

La 4e de couverture indique : "Ces dernières années ont vu un renforcement de l'interaction entre droits de l'homme et droit international économique. En témoignent la prise en compte des droits de l'homme dans les différends en matière d'investissement international ; l'intérêt que porte l'Expert indépendant pour la promotion d'un ordre international démocratique et équitable des Nations Unies à la protection des droits de l'homme dans le contentieux économique ; la sensibilisation de la société civile à la responsabilité sociétale des entreprises ; le nouveau type des traités de libre-échange qui visent un meilleur équilibre entre droits économiques et droits de l'homme. Si ces exemples illustrent un tel renforcement, cette interaction suscite également des controverses, et donne lieu à de multiples critiques visant le droit international économique, considérant qu'il ne prend pas encore suffisamment en compte les droits de l'homme. L'ouvrage examine ce constat et se penche sur les failles de l'ordre international économique ainsi que sur ses réformes. Il s'interroge sur la responsabilité des multinationales et des autres entreprises en matière de droits de l'homme ; il étudie la prise en compte des droits de l'homme dans les chaînes globales de valeur, mais aussi dans les conditionnalités du FMI ; il examine la présence des droits de l'homme dans l'arbitrage de l'investissement, et propose des solutions pour une coexistence future plus harmonieuse entre les deux domaines."
