As a result, the number of disputes that are tried in two or more different forums has increased, giving rise to difficult issues regarding the conclusive and preclusive effects of prior judgments or awards. As a result, the doctrine of \u003cem\u003eres judicata \u003c\/em\u003e, which requires that a final decision by a court or arbitral tribunal is conclusive and should not be re-litigated, is of increasing significance. Dr Silja Schaffstein provides the first practical and comprehensive guidelines for matters of \u003cem\u003eres judicata \u003c\/em\u003e for international commercial arbitration practitioners. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eStructured in two parts, part one examines the doctrine of \u003cem\u003eres judicata \u003c\/em\u003e in domestic and international litigation whilst part two determines whether and how the \u003cem\u003eres judicata \u003c\/em\u003e doctrine may be applied by international commercial arbitral tribunals. Dr Schaffstein identifies situations in which \u003cem\u003eres judicata \u003c\/em\u003e issues are likely to arise before international commercial arbitral tribunals and provides actionable solutions. The book determines the key features of the doctrine of \u003cem\u003eres judicata \u003c\/em\u003e in the laws of England, the United States, France and Switzerland, as representative of the common law system on the one hand and the civil law system on the other hand. The book also presents the doctrine of \u003cem\u003eres judicata \u003c\/em\u003e in the context of private international law, alongside its crucial aspects and application in public international law by international courts and tribunals. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe aim of the work is to demonstrate how transnational principles of \u003cem\u003eres judicata \u003c\/em\u003e should be elaborated for international commercial arbitral tribunals. The analysis looks at how the doctrine should be applied by international commercial arbitral tribunals in their relations with other arbitral tribunals or state courts, and within the arbitral proceedings pending before them. The work sets out the transnational principles in the form of guidelines for international arbitrators.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press, USA","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47890357846167,"sku":"9780198715610","price":28869.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780198715610.webp?v=1781179670","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-doctrine-of-res-judicata-before-international-commercial-arbitral-tribunals-9780198715610","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
