Description
Bringing sovereigns to the table to resolve infrastructure disputes consensually. Despite the widespread recognition of the benefits of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) in resolving infrastructure disputes, projects involving state entities have proved remarkably resistant to the possibilities. How might we craft dispute resolution processes and clauses so as to encourage sovereigns to negotiate and mediate disputes, thereby maximising value for public and private stakeholders and the wider community?
