Arbitration and Contract Law

Common Law Perspectives

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Thisbook deals with the contractual platform for arbitration and the application ofcontractual norms to the parties' dispute.

Arbitration and agreement areinter-linked in three respects: (i) the agreement to arbitrate is itself acontract; (ii) there is scope (subject to clear consensual exclusion) inEngland for monitoring the arbitral tribunal's fidelity and accuracy inapplying substantive English contract law; (iii) the subject-matter of thearbitration is nearly always a 'contractual' matter. These three elementsunderlie this work. They appear as Part I (arbitration is founded onagreement), Part II (monitoring accuracy), Part III (synopsis of the Englishcontractual rules frequently encountered within arbitration).

Thebook will be a useful resource to foreign lawyers or English non-lawyers,English lawyers seeking a succinct discussion, and to arbitral tribunals.
