Guerrilla Tactics in International Arbitration

To an extent that may surprise many, international arbitral proceedings are prone to serious
interference from the obstructive or even criminal behaviour of interested 'stakeholders'. Numerous
anecdotes involving not only bribery and subornation but also actual violent threats of retaliation have
emerged since the editors of this book addressed an audience at the Vienna Arbitration Days 2010,
at which time they used the popular term guerrilla - denoting such tactics as ambushes, sabotage,
and intimidation - to evoke their topic, and called for effective means to combat this undermining of
the integrity and popularity of international arbitration. Their call bore fruit, and this collection of
contributions by a wide spread of seasoned arbitration practitioners - the driving forces in their field -
as well as leading academics with distinguished backgrounds and reputations bears powerful witness
to the importance of the subject.
