The unresolved tensions that arise between the two are only beginning to be addressed by judges. Are courts resisting these new international limitations on their constitutional space? \u003cem\u003eConstitutional Review and International Investment Law: Deference or Defiance?\u003c\/em\u003e pioneers this discussion by examining how a selection of the highest courts around the world have addressed this potential discord. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA comparison of decisions in the US, Europe, Colombia, Indonesia, Israel, and elsewhere reveals that, rather than issuing declarations of constitutional incompatibility, courts are more likely to respond to constitutional tensions indirectly. Their rulings adopt stances that range from hard deference (such as the Peruvian Constitutional Court viewing constitutional law and investment law as entirely compatible) to soft defiance (for example the Colombian Constitutional Court requiring only modest renegotiation of some treaty terms so that they are constitutionally compliant). Readers learn that judges are not aiming to undermine the investment law regime but are seeking to mitigate constitutional collision.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Schneiderman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198885563\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198885566\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/24\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.50w x 0.75d","brand":"David Schneiderman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46140894511359,"sku":"9780198885566","price":115.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_381e7b8f-758a-4239-bb6a-da63faafc072.jpg?v=1726597338","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/constitutional-review-and-international-investment-david-schneiderman-9780198885566","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
