An examination of arbitral and alternative dispute resolution (ADR) processes in the African context. Asouzu discusses the OHADA Uniform Arbitration Regime, the New York Convention, the ICSID Convention, as well as African arbitration laws, their interpretation and application. An extensive bibliography is included.

International Commercial Arbitration and African States is a timely assessment of the arbitral process in the African context. The book focuses on the contribution that arbitration, and other methods of alternative dispute resolution, may make to the development of African states and peoples, while satisfying the legitimate expectations of inward investors and traders. Although focusing on dispute resolution regimes affecting or concerning African states and their nationals, the work will also have practical, policy and comparative implications for dispute resolution, commercial arbitration and foreign investment in other regions.

AMAZU ASOUZU is Lecturer in Law at the School of Law, King's College London, University of London.
