Historically as well, the control over production of knowledge has been the key to the success of the “grand old professors” as well as that of the young technocratic Anglo-American lawyers during the days of petro-dollar arbitrations.

Kusum Dhanania, PhD candidate in International Law, aims to identify the individuals who are involved in the production of knowledge; or said in another way competing to control the production of knowledge in the field of investment law and arbitration.

This presentation will be introduced and moderated by Joost Pauwelyn, Professor, International Law, Co-Director, Centre for Trade and Economic Integration, The Graduate Institute, Geneva
