Model Foreign Investment Law with Annotations represents a pattern that law-makers may use in modernizing existing foreign investment laws or in establishing a market-oriented framework to attract foreign investment. It utilizes a contractual approach to the relations between the foreign investor & the host State, limiting the administrative steps that might hinder the willingness of foreign investors to invest in a system which they perceive as burdensome, while at the same time preserving the right of the host State to regulate foreign investment within its borders. Included in this volume: . Annotations: explanatory notes, definitions of terms, & references to additional readings. . Bibliography: articles, books, & international documents. . Appendices: Sample Foreign Investment Application Form; Arbitration Rules of the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL); Convention on the Settlement of Investment Disputes between States & Nationals of Other States.
