While the availability and efficacy of arbitration in London, Paris and
New York is well known, and the popularity of the Swiss system widely
accepted, less is known about the mechanisms available for arbitrating
international disputes in Germany. In fact, Germany boasts a
well-developed system of arbitration which is streamlined, efficient and
inexpensive, but which has been hitherto overlooked in favour of other
jurisdictions. This new work by experienced German arbitrators, explains
in detail the workings of the German system for international
arbitration - the basis of its code, its institutional architecture and
its procedural features. Thus this work presents, for the first time,
the full workings of the German system to an English-speaking audience.
