Balancing the Scales

Balancing the Scales

0 - Default Title
Description
This book provides a critical analysis of the central procedural tension in international arbitration: balancing the efficient resolution of disputes with the fundamental requirements of due process, specifically in the realm of evidence. It examines how arbitral tribunals, guided by soft-law frameworks such as the IBA Rules on the Taking of Evidence, navigate complex admissibility challenges, including legal privilege, illegally obtained materials, and state secrecy, that arise from the clash of common law and civil law traditions. The work argues that a tribunal's handling of these evidentiary crossroads directly impacts core principles of fairness, namely equality of arms and the right to be heard. Ultimately, it demonstrates how procedural missteps can undermine an award's legitimacy and trigger enforcement challenges under the New York Convention, offering a structured assessment vital for practitioners and scholars alike.
