Abstract
A necessary resource for counsel and arbitrators alike. As Jan Paulsson describes in the Foreword, this comprehensive resource ‘fills a surprising void’, (xix). Daele has provided the first in-depth comparative law analysis of the challenge and disqualification of arbitrators under ICSID, the UNCITRAL Rules, the ICC Rules, the LCIA Rules, the SCC Rules, and the IBA Guidelines, with an emphasis on ICSID practice. He walks the reader dirough, chapter-by-chapter, all aspects of the challenge and disqualification of arbitrators, from the requirement of disclosure to how and when to make a challenge to the standard for disqualification. Daele’s insightful analysis and relevant case law, including ICSID challenge decisions, the DCIA challenge digests (27(3) Arb. Intl. (2011)), institutional challenge abstracts, and challenge decisions from national courts, are generously sprinkled throughout. The book is intended as a resource for ‘the party and counsel who intend to make a challenge; the non-challenging party and counsel; the challenged arbitrator and those called upon to decide a challenge’, (xxiii). Not having Daele’s book would be a self-inflicted handicap, as diis resource allows for a quick and thorough understanding of these complex issues.
