| Abstract: |
This Module gives a general introduction to the series of Modules dealing with the settlement of international investment disputes at ICSID. It explains the close link between economic development and foreign direct investment. Foreign direct investment depends in large measure on the economic, political and legal conditions prevailing in the host State. Access to an impartial and effective method of dispute settlement is an important element of the legal conditions. |
