PROVISIONAL MEASURES
BEFORE INTERNATIONAL
COURTS AND TRIBUNALS
Since the decision of the International Court of Justice in LaGrand (Ger-
many v United States of America), the law of provisional measures has
expanded dramatically both in terms of the volume of relevant decisions
and the complexity of their reasoning. Provisional Measures before Interna-
tional Courts and Tribunals seeks to describe and evaluate this expansion,
and to undertake a comparative analysis of provisional measures jurispru-
dence in a range of significant international courts and tribunals so as to
situate interim relief in the wider procedure of those adjudicative bodies.
The result is the first comprehensive examination of the law of provisional
measures in over a decade, and the first to compare investor-state arbitra-
tion jurisprudence with more traditional inter-state courts and tribunals.
