The Commercial, Shipping & Investment ARBITRATION WATCH

Welcome to new contributors

Dear New Contributor,

Plurality and diversity are paramount to this project. We encourage lawyers, arbitrators, academics and other professionals from all countries to contribute to our upcoming issues.

Submissions are welcome in two sections of every issue: “Laws & Treaties” and “Landmark rulings”. Both should relate to national or international arbitration. Tips for new contributors are as follows:

• Laws & Treaties: This section embraces domestic legislation (Acts, Treaties, Conventions, Bills, etc.) enacted or signed in every country which may have a bearing (directly or indirectly) on arbitration. You are welcome to cite concisely the name of the new legislative body, the date it came into force, its scope and purpose. Special emphasis should be put on its impact in arbitration. No more than 5 lines may suffice. A link to the website containing the full text would also be of interest.
  
  Examples: a new arbitration act, amendments to existing acts, procedure laws on the enforcement of foreign awards, rules on provisional measures, immunity rules against execution of awards on sovereign assets, etc.




• Landmark rulings: This section concerns all court cases germane to arbitration matters. Please cite any decisions or judgments published in your country. We need to know the date, the court, the parties and a summary of the decision in 10 lines or less.


Examples: enforcement of foreign awards, annulments, provisional measures adopted in arbitration, validity of arbitration agreement, interpretation of a particular issue of the 1958 N.Y. Convention, appointment of arbitrators, treatment of dissenting opinions, public order exceptions, manifest disregard of the law, disclosure of evidence, anti-suit injunctions, etc.).

All contributions must be written in English and have some relevance to commercial, shipping and/or investment arbitration matters.

They should necessarily relate to (court or legislative) authoritative documents published or enacted within the 3–month period of each bulletin.

By submitting your contributions you authorize the Editors to post your name, firm and e-mail on the current issue, as well as on the website. Please make sure that your name, firm and e-mail appear correctly typed in your submission.

All contributions should be submitted by e-mail to albertbadia@aacni.com.

Editors reserve the right to admit or decline contributions following criteria of chronology, originality and relevance, among others.
