Brief summary on the aim of the doctoral thesis:
This research project concerns an analysis of the use of ex ante contracts to arbitrate tort claims using law and economics methodologies. More specifically this involves an analysis of claims which are purely domestic in nature and have no choice of law issues which could fall under the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards of 1958. This research takes up a niche space within the topics of arbitration, tort law, contract law, comparative law judicial systems and competition law.
