With the bilingual volume International Investment Law in Latin America: Problems and Prospects, Attila Tanzi, Alessandra Asteriti, Rodrigo Polanco Lazo and Paolo Turrini provide a regional perspective on one of the liveliest branches of international law by situating it in one of the most dynamic areas of the world. Latin America has always had an ambivalent relationship with international investment law and, more recently, it has been the home of harsh and resolute criticisms, questioning the ultimate legitimacy of the regime. By bringing together distinguished scholars of this legal field, the volume analyses ongoing trends and draws lessons from the Continent’s past experiences while identifying possible solutions to the important challenges it faces. Con el volumen bilingüe Derecho Internacional de las Inversiones en América Latina: Problemas y Perspectivas, Attila Tanzi, Alessandra Asteriti, Rodrigo Polanco Lazo y Paolo Turrini tienen por objetivo proporcionar una perspectiva regional para una de las ramas más vigorosas del derecho internacional, situándola en una de las áreas más dinámicas del mundo. Latinoamérica siempre ha tenido una relación ambivalente con el derecho internacional de inversiones y, más recientemente, ha sido el hogar de duras y decididas críticas en su contra, cuestionando la legitimidad última del régimen. Al reunir a distinguidos estudiosos de este campo legal, tanto de América Latina como de fuera de la región, este volumen analiza esta actual tendencia, extrayendo lecciones de las experiencias pasadas del continente e identificando posibles soluciones a los desafíos importantes que ahora enfrenta.

Sobre un mismo telón de fondo, los autores de este libro avanzan algunas ideas propias acerca de cómo la Corte, basándose en presuntas posiciones de las partes en conflicto en el caso incoado ante ella en 2008 por Ecuador en contra de Colombia, habría de desarrollar en su fallo sobre el fondo el Derecho Internacional Ambiental. Al así hacerlo, demuestran ellos un enfoque objetivo del caso. Es cierto que, al menos en lo que concierne a la posición del demandante, sus rasgos generales han sido ya trazados en la demanda, el escrito con que se inició la acción judicial.Merece destacar el ejemplo que ofrece el esfuerzo conjunto del estadista y publicista autor y de su aventajado discípulo, el catedrático e investigador Cárdenas Castañeda, plasmado en lo que es un verdadero Tratado. Pues no de otra forma se puede caracterizar el presente libro, que constituye un valioso aporte a la creciente bibliografía sobre el tema, en especial en idioma español. Este libro indudablemente llena un vacío en la literatura jurídica especializada en el país.Merece destacar el ejemplo que ofrece el esfuerzo conjunto del estadista y publicista autor y de su aventajado discípulo, el catedrático e investigador Cárdenas Castañeda, plasmado en lo que es un verdadero Tratado.
