The European Union's Proposal for an International Investment Court: Significance, Innovations and Challenges Ahead
2016
International audience; Rampant discontent with the current system that governs the protection of international investment and the functioning of investment tribunals has led to a widespread view that there is an urgent need for reform. This is particularly pronounced in the context of investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS). The European Union (EU) has responded to this need by proposing the creation of an international investment court. With its political weight, the EU confers unprecedented legitimacy on the critics of the current ISDS system and reveals investment dispute settlement in the light of public international law, breaking with its background in commercial litigation. The art…

EC Practice in the WTO: How Wide is the "Scope for Manouvre"?
2004
The EC’s implementation record in the WTO seems to reflect an attitude that, in accordance with the view traditionally maintained by the European Court of Justice from International Fruit to Portugal, finds its cornerstone in the principle of negotiations with a view to achieving mutually satisfactory solutions, even beyond the limits set by the DSU. Following these premises, the purpose of this paper is to analyse the impact that has been exercised on the EC’s contentious practice by interpretations of the WTO system given by the EC courts, in fine tuning with the stand taken by the EC’s political bodies. After having considered the legal and political reasons behind the case-law of the Co…
Enforcing WTO Law
2017
This contribution analyses the difference between the enforcement system provided for by the European Union legal system and the one set up by the World Trade Organisation. The reciprocal and bilateral nature of the WTO obligations and the possibility for the parties to a dispute to have recourse to negotiation (in ways not always foreseen and regulated by the Dispute Settlement Understanding) in order to resolve the issue of implementation in the post-adjudication phase of the dispute settlement procedure are features that by-and-large differentiate the WTO legal system from that of the EU and also explains the differences between the remedies provided for by the two systems.
Ieguldītāju un valsts strīdu izšķiršana no Eiropas Savienības tiesību perspektīvas
2016
Maģistra darbā pētīts ieguldītāju un valsts strīdu izšķiršanas mehānisms no Eiropas Savienības tiesību perspektīvas, koncentrējoties uz starp dalībvalstīm noslēgtiem divpusējiem ieguldījumu aizsardzības līgumiem. Darba mērķis ir atbildēt uz jautājumu, vai šobrīd pastāvošais strīdu izšķiršanas mehānisms nepārkāpj ES tiesības, kā arī, kādi būtu risinājumi iespējamām nesaderībām. Darba uzdevumi bija cita starpā izvērtēt EST judikatūru un doktrīnu galvenokārt par LESD 344., 267. un 351. pantiem, secinot to tvērumu attiecībā uz divpusējiem ieguldījumu aizsardzības līgumiem, kā arī rast risinājumu iespējamai nesaderībai ar ES tiesību prasībām. Vietā šķiet Viljama Šekspīra mūžīgais jautājums, kas …

Investor-state dispute settlement - podstępne zagrożenie dla sprawnego działania administracji publicznej
2017
ISDS (investor-state dispute settlement, znany także jako ICS - investment court system) to umowny mechanizm rozstrzygania sporów między inwestorem a państwem. Polega on na możliwości zaskarżenia państwa przez przedsiębiorcę (inwestora) do arbitrażu wówczas, gdy państwo wydaje lub wykorzystuje przepisy ograniczające zyski przedsiębiorstwa (praktyki dyskryminujące). Arbitrami ISDS jest kilkunastu sowicie opłacanych prawników, pracujących dla wielkich kancelarii międzynarodowych, którzy niemal nigdy nie orzekają na korzyść państwa. Przedsiębiorca może żądać wysokiego odszkodowania: nie tylko zwrotu utraconych korzyści, lecz także spodziewanych zysków, których wysokości nie musi nawet drobiazg…
