Legalization, diplomacy, and development: Do investment treaties de-politicize investment disputes?

, , and .
(2018)

Abstract

The United States government often involves itself in foreign investment disputes. While high-level diplomacy is common, explicit sanctions and threats are rare. Investment treaties have no effect on the likelihood of diplomatic intervention. There is no empirical support that US treaties ‘de-politicize’ investment disputes.
