International Commercial Arbitration: A Contractual Substitute for National Courts

Article by Henry P. de Vries

This article seeks to present the background and analytical framework for proper use of international commercial arbitration. It is not intended as an unrestrained call for the use of arbitration to replace court litigation; nor even as a general assertion that arbitration is a more efficient, speedier, and less expensive means of determining issues of fact and law.
