Description and Table of Contents
Description
This
book deals with the contractual platform for arbitration and the application of
contractual norms to the parties' dispute.
Arbitration and agreement are
inter-linked in three respects: (i) the agreement to arbitrate is itself a
contract; (ii) there is scope (subject to clear consensual exclusion) in
England for monitoring the arbitral tribunal's fidelity and accuracy in
applying substantive English contract law; (iii) the subject-matter of the
arbitration is nearly always a 'contractual' matter. These three elements
underlie this work. They appear as Part I (arbitration is founded on
agreement), Part II (monitoring accuracy), Part III (synopsis of the English
contractual rules frequently encountered within arbitration).
The
book will be a useful resource to foreign lawyers or English non-lawyers,
English lawyers seeking a succinct discussion, and to arbitral tribunals.
