Summary:

Conceptual issues underpinning the thorny relationship between international investment law and development can be grouped into a number of key themes. At the core of one such theme are questions pertaining to substantive and procedural investment protection rules. Are these rules development-friendly? Do they reflect the evolving views on development and the changing role of foreign investors who are now expected to not only create economic growth but also do so in environmentally and socially-friendly manner? And, do international investment norms provide sufficient room for host states to retain their right to pursue public policy objectives, including policies fostering sustainable development?
