About the Book

`In International Trade and Investment Law Dr Rafael Leal-Arcas succinctly describes and evaluates the linkages and tensions among three governance levels in the global political economy, the multilateral, the regional and the bilateral. He synthesises trade and investment law in a single text, exploring the continuities and discontinuities between the two. He discusses relevant historical, theoretical and policy issues, and the text moves easily between economic and legal analysis. Dr Leal-Arcas has provided a highly informative and stimulating text which will serve a wide audience for years to come.'
- Laurence Boulle, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa

`This comprehensive treatment of international trade and investment law, covering various regulatory and legal levels, convinces by outlining approaches to overcome the existing fragmentation of the legal framework. Advocating for a move towards extended multilaterism and improved dispute settlements mechanisms also allows to combat the past cyclicality of the rule- and decision-making processes.'
- Rolf H. Weber, University of Zurich, Switzerland

This timely book examines international trade and investment law at various levels of governance, including unilateral, bilateral, regional, and multilateral arrangements.

Rafael Leal-Arcas demonstrates that the nature of international trade law is fragmented and cyclical. Whilst not always straightforward, the process of making international trade law more multilateral, beginning with the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade in 1947, has been largely successful. The author shows how this success could be emulated for international investment law, as well as providing a careful analysis of the choice of jurisdiction - regional versus global - for the settlement of disputes.

This insightful book will be an invaluable resource for research institutions, legal practitioners, judges, trade and investment policy-makers, officials at international organizations and national civil servants. Advanced students of international economic law, international investment law, external relations law of the EU, international trade law and WTO law will also find this book important
