Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This book sets out the various forms a mining agreement (MA) can take; examines the key role played by national political will in MA negotiation through an analysis of MA evolution in four host-counties (HCs) - Australia, Chile, Indonesia and Papua New Guinnea - all of which are (or have been) particularly attractive countries for foreign mineral investment; explores the main trends in the evolution of MA content over the past 30 years, including the dramatic increase in environmental requirements, the growing concern over natives' rights, and the decrease in economic rent and equity shares; traces the trends' origin in the HCs' political will with the TMCs' need for stability, and explains how to write an MA that will stand the test of time.

Negotiating the Law of the Sea
Author: James K. Sebenius
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 9780674606869
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
The Law of the Sea (LOS) treaty resulted from some of the most complicated multilateral negotiations ever conducted. Difficult bargaining produced a remarkably sophisticated agreement on the financial aspects of deep ocean mining and on the financing of a new international mining entity. This book analyzes those negotiations along with the abrupt U.S. rejection of their results. Building from this episode, it derives important and subtle general rules and propositions for reaching superior, sustainable agreements in complex bargaining situations. James Sebenius shows how agreements were possible among the parties because and not in spite of differences in their values, expectations, and attitudes toward time and risk. He shows how linking separately intractable issues can generate a zone of possible agreement. He analyzes the extensive role of a computer model in the LOS talks. Finally, he argues that in many negotiations neither the issues nor the parties are fixed and develops analytic techniques that predict how the addition or deletion of either issues or parties may affect the process of reaching agreement.

Arbitration and Renegotiation of International Investment Agreements:A Study with Particular Reference to Means of Conflict Avoidance Under Natural Resources Investment Agreements
Author: Wolfgang Peter
Publisher: Kluwer Law International B.V.
ISBN: 9041100377
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 488
Book Description
This book is a second, revised edition of the original 1986 publication. Since then, the issue of contract change has increasingly challenged the business community and legal practitioners. The world-wide recession may well have accelerated the need to secure contractual relationships by reasonable flexibility. Successful foreign investment, a relentless challenge, is subject to many unpredictable errors. Of all these variables, however, successful investment is most dependent on the investor-host country relationship, which is the object of the present study. In particular, the pressure by host countries for contract change and its counterpart: the investor's defence of contract stability. The book is essentially a reference handbook for legal practitioners. It analyzes a variety of increasingly important questions concerning international investment agreements that come under pressure for change by one of the contracting parties: either a transnational corporation or a host country government. The seven case studies and the analytical chapters which follow are based on the author's research and the assistance of corporate and government officials, experts from the United Nations and other organizations, and members of academic research institutes.

A Joint Venture Agreement for Seabed Mining
Author: G. Jaenicke
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401743444
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 127
Book Description
The Third Uni ted Nations Conference on the Lawof the Sea is preparing rules far the establishment of an international legal regime governing the exploration and exploitation of the resources of the international seabed. The Draft Convention on the Law of the Sea (Informal Text) of 27 August 1980 which has so far been the result of the negotiations during the preceding sessions of the Conference, provides for a so-called "parallel system" under which an international "Enterprise" as weIl as national private or state-owned companies will be granted access to the resources of the international seabed under the control of an International Seabed Authority. The Draft Convention also envisages the condusion of joint venture agreements between the international Enterprise and national companies or consortia, and encourages such cooperation through grant ing various incentives. Such joint ventures will probably play an important part in making the international Enterprise operative in the early years of its existence. At the Conference concerns have been expressed whether and when the Enterprise as a newcomer would be in a position to start seabed mining and to compete effectively with the national companies. The Draft Convention provides for a number of ways and means to enable the Enterprise to develop its technological and financial capabilities for deep sea mining as early as possible.

First Published in 2004. The purpose of this special study is to enhance our understanding of the role of different service sectors in the welfare and development of emerging economies.
