Samenvatting:

This book provides a comprehensive and systematic analysis of the emerging fourth generation of Chinese investment treaties. It argues that these treaties are entering an exploratory phase, shaped by the concurrent evolution of both China’s foreign investment regulatory regime and the broader landscape of international investment law. The period has witnessed significant breakthroughs over the past five years, including the promulgation of China’s new Foreign Investment Law, the conclusion of the China-EU Comprehensive Agreement on Investment and the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership, and China’s active engagement in investment arbitration. Given China’s important role in the global investment regime, its fourth-generation investment treaties warrant particular attention. This book will be valuable not only for Chinese scholars and practitioners specializing in international investment treaties and arbitration, but also for their international counterparts seeking to understand China’s domestic investment reforms and their interactions with international investment treaties.
