International Investment Treaties and Arbitration Across Asia brings together leading academics and practitioners to examine whether and how the Asian region has or may become a significant ‘rule maker’ in contemporary international investment law and dispute resolution. The editors introduce FDI trends and regulations, investment treaties and arbitration across Asia. Authors add country studies for the ten member states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations as well as an overview of ASEAN treaties, or examine other potential ‘middle powers’ (Korea, Australia and New Zealand collectively) and the emerging ‘big players’ (China, Japan and India). Two early chapters present econometric studies of treaty impact on FDI flows, in aggregate as well as for Thailand, while two concluding chapters offer other normative and forward-looking perspectives.

"This book provides a comprehensive account of developments in international investment law and practice in the Asian region. It places that account in a larger conceptual framework, partly defined by reference to rule making and rule taking by States. It also places it in the real and conceptually untidy world of domestic and international politics. I congratulate the editors and the contributors on their achievement."
~Hon Robert French AC, Former Chief Justice of Australia
"This is an important book for those who need to understand the real picture of international treaty investment in Asia. This book discusses the current dynamics in each different country and also the ways in which investment treaty arbitration is likely to evolve in the near future. Each chapter contains an independent look at the situation in a different country, so it is not a cookie cutter review with the same set of standard questions for the writer of each chapter to answer. There is much to learn from it and will inform any serious discussion of the future of investment treaty arbitration in Asia."
~Michael Hwang SC, Barrister and Arbitrator
“Asia is the most dynamic region for investment law and practice, and we finally have a comprehensive volume that covers the region in all its diversity. With a superb set of contributors from inside and outside the region, the volume will be essential reading for any serious scholar or practitioner in the field."
~Tom Ginsburg, Leo Spitz Professor of International Law and Professor of Political Science at the University of Chicago
“An invaluable addition to the existing scattered literature on the topic, this work is definitively the entire package deal on investment in the Asia-Pacific, and is nothing short of necessary for academics, practitioners, students, policymakers and even investors.”
