Why Choose This Book?
India's Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 is built on the UNCITRAL Model Law, and English arbitration law has developed in close conversation with the same international framework. Indian courts continue to cite English authority on the separability of the arbitration agreement, the scope of the tribunal's jurisdiction, the grounds for setting aside an award and the enforcement of foreign awards. A rigorous account of the English position therefore remains directly useful to anyone practising arbitration in India.
Russell is the work that English judges and counsel themselves reach for. For a practice that is increasingly cross-border, having the leading English text in an affordable South Asian Edition is a straightforward advantage.
