Meer over het boek

The book delves into the legal frameworks governing foreign investment in Africa, examining the interplay between international investment law, human rights law, and national laws. It analyzes contracts from a significant investment project to evaluate how these laws protect various stakeholders, including investors and local communities. By investigating the negotiating power dynamics among these groups, it highlights whether disparities in legal protection exacerbate or mitigate existing inequalities. The work offers a comprehensive legal perspective intertwined with social implications, shedding light on the nexus between law and power in a globalized context.
