This volume provides a novel theoretical examination of the concept of arbitration, attempting to answer fundamental questions which have rarely been addressed systematically in English. It explores the place of arbitration in the legal process, offering a challenging, yet accessible overview of the field and its theoretical underpinnings and contending that arbitration is important enough to be understood in its own terms, as a \u003cem\u003esui generis\u003c\/em\u003e feature of social life. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhy do individuals, companies, and States choose to go to arbitration rather than through litigation? Arbitration can offer increased flexibility and confidentiality, and provides the parties with the opportunity to select the arbitrators. But what makes them want to confide in an arbitrator rather than use the more traditional legal mechanisms for settling disputes? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis volume explores what the parties can expect of an arbitrator and whether and how the conduct of an arbitrator might be questioned and under what authority.
