The future of arbitration: Still efficient and preferred choice?

Arbitration is increasingly under pressure, criticised for being time consuming, costly and excessively formalised.

 

The research project on arbitration and party autonomy  (http://www.jus.uio.no/ifp/english/research/projects/choice-of-law/index.html) organizes a series of roundtable discussions on the future of arbitration.

The panels will consist of highly recognized academics and practitioners from Norway and other Nordic countries, as well as from the international community.

The topics that will be discussed include the efficiency of arbitration and the relationship of commercial arbitration to other dispute resolution mechanisms.

The former topic will be discussed from the point of view of arbitration institutions as well as in respect of the role of arbitrators.

In the framework of the latter topic, we will discuss commercial arbitration’s relationship to mediation, investor-state arbitration and court litigation.

For more details, please see the attached programme.
