Responsibility of the EU and the Member States under EU International Investment Protection Agreements

More about the book

Focusing on the international responsibility of the EU and its Member States, the book explores the structure of this responsibility under various investment protection agreements. It contrasts the older Energy Charter Treaty with newer treaties like CETA, TTIP, and agreements with Singapore and Vietnam. The unique status of the EU as a "special" international organization presents complex challenges in public international law, particularly within the relatively uncharted territory of international investment law. The work aims to advance legal understanding and encourage further research in this field.
