Two of the distinguishing features of the law on foreign direct investment (FDI) are its complexity and its creativity. The law on FDI embraces the domestic rules and regulations dealing with foreign controlled businesses as well as the numerous bilateral and multilateral legal instruments. It is influenced by awards of international arbitration tribunals as well as numerous other sources. Consequently, it is always changing. The various actors involved, including transnational corporations, local companies, investment promotion agencies, and multilateral donors, as well as lawyers advising foreign investors or their local counterparts and financial intermediaries, each follow their own interests. By its nature, FDI involves the interaction, and sometimes the clash, between different legal concepts of the participants and regulators. Counsels to local governments and domestic partners in a joint venture with foreign companies may not always be accustomed to legal documentation in an Anglo-American or continental European style. As a result, dealing with FDI requires an ongoing learning process for all who wish to understand and successfully manage foreign investment transactions. All this elucidates the need for a multi-author book which covers various areas of the law on FDI from different perspectives. The authors of this book are all concerned with FDI as either academics or practicioners and come from a variety of legal, academic and geographical backgrounds. The book consists of three parts: first, a general introduction on FDI by Dr. Escher; next, an analysis on the emerging international law on FDI and related areas; and finally, an overview of FDI law in a variety of countries in Asia, Africa, Latin-America, and Europe.

In the world as globalized as it is nowadays, it is almost impossible to imagine an economy without foreign investments. A country's attitude towards foreign investment greatly differ; some have a more open-minded legislation and it really makes no difference whether an investment is domestic or from another country, while some countries tend to be more cautious and still perceive foreign investments as uncommon and treat them as an exception. Be it as it may for any reason, one basically cannot argue that foreign investments are an important economic factor. The content of this book is the result of the authors' professional experience from various capacities in which they dealt with foreign investments. The book is not intended to present an absolutely comprehensive research of all legal aspects of foreign investments; rather, it gives a general review of, in the authors' view, most important issues which either an investor or a host country may encounter. The purpose was to give a sort of checklist of these issues and to refer to legal sources, which help to find more detailed and profound answers to various problems that derive from foreign investments.The intent of the authors was that the book can be used as a kind of textbook for introductory classes at law faculties, but also as a guide to legal practitioners and businesses. Even though most of the issues are notably important for investments in developing countries, we dare to say that many of them may be equally essential for any investment in any country, irrespective of its level of economic and legal development.
