About the Book:
Fair and Equitable Treatment and the Rule of LawLink opens in a new window provides a unique argument concerning the grounding of the FET standard in general principles of law and the importance of the host state’s national rule of law and pre-existing obligations for the application of the FET standard. By comprehensively investigating the fair and equitable treatment standard (FET), this book presents how this standard in investment treaty disputes can be both legally justified and realistically beneficial. It reflects on how FET jurisprudence can be advantageous to both the rule of law and to the legitimacy of the international investment regime.
