Mixing Methodologies in Empirically Investigating Investment Arbitration and Inbound Foreign Investment

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter › peer-review

Abstract

This chapter illustrates the potential and challenges of mixing methods1 in empirically investigating treaty-based investorstate dispute settlement (ISDS). It focuses on three issues raised by policy-makers and wider public discussion in recent years: Do ISDS provisions lead to more cross-border foreign direct investment (FDI)? Do investors need and (threaten to) use ISDS-backed protections when investing abroad? Does offering ISDS lead to excessive costs to host states, directly or (via regulatory chill) indirectly?
