Our Senior Partner, Stevan Dimitrijevic, had the honor of co-authoring Chapter 5.3, titled Investor–State Mediation, in the book International Investment Law and Investor-State Dispute Settlement, together with his fellow colleague Julia Jung.
While mediation is not a universal solution, its potential as a valuable tool within the Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) framework is immense, which is why efforts have been made to demonstrate its practicality. The chapter addresses key issues in resolving investment disputes through mediation, including agreements to mediate, timing considerations, mediator selection, and overcoming structural and political challenges.
Congratulations to Stevan Dimitrijevic and Julia Jung on their joint contribution to the development of mediation practices in investment disputes!
