The Public Policy Exception under the New York Convention: History, Interpretation, and Application, Second Edition describes in detail the drafting history of the public policy exception of Article V (2) (b) of the New York Convention and the purpose the signatory states wanted to achieve with this clause. The book explains how this clause is applied by the courts in many economically relevant states, especially in Brazil, Russia, India, and China. Since the release of the first edition in 2013, some countries have enacted new or amended existing arbitration laws, and many new decisions have been released especially by courts in Brazil, China, India, and Russia, which prompted the publication of this second edition.
The book is important for internationally active companies as well as for lawyers and courts, as it aids lawyers and companies in drafting arbitration clauses and in enforcing foreign arbitral awards. Judgments often will not be enforced abroad, and this is especially true with respect to the enforcement of foreign judgments in the BRIC countries. For this reason, while useful to scholars and students, the Public Policy Exception, Second edition is of particular use to internationally active companies and their advisors as the book provides guidance on whether and where foreign arbitral awards will be more likely to be enforced in their favor abroad.
