Traditional multilateralism in the shadow of bilateralism: UN emanations in the international investment agreement regime
Multilateralism is widely contested, with formal intergovernmental organisations (FIGOs) perceived as gridlocked and in decline. This has led to the proliferation of informal intergovernmental organisations (IIGOs) and the fragmentation of global governance. However, existing classifications of FIGOs and IIGOs struggle to account for emanations – second-order international organisations (IOs) created by first-order IOs. This study examines the ro…
The Discursive Evolution of Human Rights Law: Empirical Insights from a Computational Analysis of 180,000 UN Recommendations
Building on an independent database of 180,000 UN recommendations and a novel computational method, we present the most comprehensive study of human rights (HR) debates to date. We develop a unique empirical model that measures topical density of discourse. This innovative instrument measures the discursive activity of UN HR bodies through a machine-learning textual analysis of their outputs, offering a dynamic map of evolving trends in human rig…
The growing pains of actorness: The European Union in global investment governance
Foreign investment is governed by thousands of international investment agreements (IIAs), many of which include investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) provisions. Member states have played a prominent role in the evolution and shape of this decentralized global investment regime. The EU itself has become an actor in this regime since gaining competence in this area in 2009. This article examines the manners by which investment policies of the …
Entangled Legalities Beyond the State
Not all rights are created equal: A loss–gain frame of investor rights and human rights
International investment tribunals often use the language of ‘rights’ to characterize foreign investors’ claims against host states, evoking the language of human rights and, in some cases, appearing to conflate the two concepts. We investigate the cognitive framing of the relationship between investor rights and human rights in investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS), as characterized by investment tribunals. We first establish that arbitrators…
Establishing an NHRI in a Contested Political Space: A Deliberative Process in Israel
How can a National Human Rights Institution (NHRI), as the centrepiece of a national human rights system, be established and contribute to the domestic institutionalisation of human rights in a contested political space? Could the effectiveness of domestic human rights actors be enhanced without a formal NHRI? This article reflects on a deliberative process regarding the establishment of an NHRI compliant with the ‘Paris Principles' as the prevai…
Outcome Bias and Expertise in Investigations under International Humanitarian Law
Many international law decisions are made by individuals, often possessed with expertise, legal or otherwise. We examine individual international humanitarian law (IHL) decision-making on two levels: military decisions made ex ante regarding real-time operational questions under conditions of uncertainty and imperfect information, and subsequent ex post evaluations of the propriety of military decisions in the context of military investigations r…
The Psychology of International Law: An Introduction
Public international law scholarship opens evermore to social science theories and methodologies, but the implications of cognitive research and behavioural economics have not been systematically explored, even though they have been successfully applied to domestic legal issues and are increasingly used in public policy and regulation. In this symposium, we aim to fill two research gaps: first, international law and economics and international po…
Once Bitten, Twice Shy? Investment Disputes, State Sovereignty, and Change in Treaty Design
More than 3,000 international investment agreements (IIAs) provide foreign investors with substantive protections in host states and access to binding investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS). In recent years, states increasingly have sought to change their treaty commitments through the practices of renegotiation and termination, so far affecting about 300 IIAs. The received wisdom is that this development reflects a “backlash” against the regim…
Mapping the Potential Interactions between Unesco's Intangible Cultural Heritage Regime and World Trade Law
The 2003 Convention for the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage (CSICH) was not intended to have legal repercussions in international trade. Nevertheless, intangible cultural heritage (ICH) may interact with trade regulation under various scenarios. The CSICH "Representative List" inscribes numerous ICH elements with real and potential international commercial aspects and consequent trade law implications. These emergent trade law-ICH re…
Linking Global Trade and Human Rights
During the global economic crisis of 2008, countries around the world used national policy spaces to respond to the crisis in ways that shed new light on the possibilities for linkages between international trade and human rights. This book introduces the idea of policy space as an innovative way to reframe recent developments in global governance. It brings together a wide-ranging group of leading experts in international law, trade, human right…
Cosmopolitanism in Context: Perspectives from International Law and Political Theory
Is it possible and desirable to translate the basic principles underlying cosmopolitanism as a moral standard into effective global institutions. Will the ideals of inclusiveness and equal moral concern for all survive the marriage between cosmopolitanism and institutional power? What are the effects of such bureaucratisation of cosmopolitan ideals? This volume examines the strained relationship between cosmopolitanism as a moral standard and the…
