In this issue, Romesh Weeramantry considers whether the rules of interpretation in the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties (VCLT) remain fully fit for purpose, particularly in investment treaty disputes.

Subcontracts and Multiparty Arbitration in Construction Disputes
This is an Insight article, written by a selected partner as part of GAR's co-published content. Read more on Insight Major construction projects typically involve several parties and interrelated contracts, including subcontracts.

The opening piece of this Issue ‘Challenging Homogeneity in International Arbitration: Towards Greater Diversity and Inclusion in Counsel Teams’ by Eliane Fischer and Roopa Mathews offers an interesting and informative perspective on a widely discussed, yet still not universally well-managed issue of diversity and inclusion in arbitration. ‘Diversity’ and ‘inclusion’, have been in our minds in dispute resolution for many years.

‘Are cryptocurrency assets a protected investment under investment treaties?’ Evgeniya Rubinina asks in the Journal’s first issue of 2023. It is both a topical and complex question to ask. It is topical because in the wake of an annus horribilis that cryptocurrencies had in 2022, including the collapse of major cryptocurrency trading firms such as FTX, Genesis and Gemini, it is likely that claims from investors who have lost their money will ensue.
