El estatuto jurídico de los árbitros en el sistema CIADI

Abstract

Arbitration between States and foreign investors is a dispute-resolution mechanism halfway between international public Law and private Law, which had surprisingly rised during the 1990's at the world level. In this work the following issues will be tackled: the legal nature of the aforementioned arbitrators. ICSID -International Centre for the Settlement of Investments Disputes- is a modality of institutional arbitration for investments. This institution is incarditated into the World Bank Group. The aim of this dissertation is to carry out a research on the configuration of the independence and impartiality of ICSID arbitrators, as well as their duties and rights as such and their procedural faculties. The research will be based on both national and international comparative Law, focusing in legal doctrine, in praxis and in the law governing the ICSIS system.
