Class, Mass, and Collective Arbitration in National and International Law

en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 noi 2013
Class arbitration first developed in the United States in the 1980s as a means of providing large numbers of individuals with the opportunity to assert their claims at the same time and in the same proceeding. Large-scale arbitration has since spread beyond U.S. borders, with collective arbitration being seen in Europe and mass arbitration being used in the international investment regime. Class, Mass and Collective Arbitration in National and International Law considers all three forms of arbitration as a matter of domestic and international law, providing arbitrators, advocates and scholars with the tools they need to evaluate these sorts of procedural mechanisms. The book covers the best-known decisions in the field - Stolt-Nielsen S.A. v. Animal Feeds International Corp. and AT&T Mobility LLC v. Concepcion from the U.S. Supreme Court and Abaclat v. Argentine Republic from the world of investment arbitration - as well as specialized rules promulgated by the American Arbitration Association, JAMS and the German Institution of Arbitration (DIS). The text introduces dozens of previously undiscussed judicial opinions and covers issues ranging from contractual (or treaty) silence and waiver to regulatory concerns and matters of enforcement. The book discusses the entire timeline of class, mass and collective arbitration, ranging from the devices' historical origins through the present and into the future. Lawyers in a wide variety of jurisdictions will benefit from the material contained in this text, which is the first full-length monograph to address large-scale arbitration as a matter of national and international law.

Recenzii

Strong accomplishes her aim in a thoughtful, lucid, and commendably concise way ... There is no doubt that her taxonomy of the forms of large-scale arbitrations (representative and aggregative arbitration) will continue to inform the debate on the appropriate characterization of multiparty investment arbitration. Abaclat has already relied upon her classification to understand whether mass claims are representative or aggregative in nature; future potential mass claims such as Adamakopolous v Cyprus (initiated by 676 claimants) will continue to gain from her insight.
Professor Strong's latest work is a comprehensive and thoughtful treatment of a topic of exceptional practical and academic interest. In both descriptive and prescriptive discussions, Professor Strong's analysis is invariably both informative and provocative. A must for both practitioners and academics.
A superb analysis of a complex, and increasingly significant, area of arbitration law and practice.
Professor Strong's work is an extremely welcome and important addition to the commentary on the use and development of group arbitration. More generally, it is a very valuable contribution to the broader subject of arbitration and its theoretical roots.
Professor Strong's prior work has already been drawn on in arbitral awards addressing large-scale claims. That her views are now recorded in what is most likely to become the leading text on the subject will likely ensure that this continues. Additionally it seems probable that her book will become a go-to resource for counsel who find themselves advising on such disputes.
Rigorously constructed and extremely well written. A superb addition to our arbitration library.
