Luke Sobota and Alina Papanastasiou have contributed two chapters to the recently published book, General International Law in International Investment Law – A Commentary edited by Andreas Kulick and Michael Waibel.
Luke co-authored the chapter, “Parts IV and V of the VCLT: Amendment, invalidity, termination and suspension of investment treaties”, alongside 3C alumnus Amelia Keene.
Alina co-authored a chapter on “Article 8 of the ARSIWA: Attribution of conduct instructed, directed, or controlled by a State” with Professor Jorge E Viñuales. The chapter addresses the interface between general international law and investment arbitration with respect to the attribution of conduct instructed, directed or controlled by a State.
