Description

Over the past decade, Europe's traditionally open investment landscape has shifted towards a more protectionist stance due to evolving geopolitical factors. This open access book delves into the emerging challenges within the EU legal order related to this shift. Featuring contributions from leading scholars, civil servants, and practitioners, it offers a comprehensive analysis through four key themes: investment frameworks, arbitration, sustainability, and future developments. With its expert insights and broad scope, this collection is an invaluable resource for investment lawyers both within and beyond the European Union.

The eBook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com Open access to this book has been made possible through support from the Swedish Network for European Legal Studies (SNEF).
