Foreign investors have a privileged position under investment treaties. They enjoy strong rights, have no obligations, and can rely on a highly efficient enforcement mechanism: investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS). Unsurprisingly, this extraordinary status has made international investment law one of the most controversial areas of the global economic order.This book sheds new light on the topic, by showing that foreign investor rights are not the result of unpredicted arbitral interpretations, but rather the outcome of a world-making project realized by a coalition of business leaders, bankers, and their lawyers in the 1950s and 1960s. Some initiatives that these figures planned for did not emerge, such as a multilateral investment convention, but they were successful in developing a legal imagination that gradually occupied the space ofinternational investment law. They sought not only to set up a dispute settlement mechanism but also to create a platform to ground their vision of foreign investment relations. Tracing their normative project from the post-World War II period, this book shows that the legal imagination of these businessleaders, bankers, and lawyers is remarkably similar to present ISDS practice. Common to both is what they protect, such as foreign investors'' legitimate expectations, as well as what they silence or make invisible. Ultimate, this book argues that our canon of imagination, of adjustment and potential reform, remains closely associated with this world-making project of the 1950s and 1960s.

Este libro propone un análisis frente a la dicotomía entre la teoría clásica de la propiedad y el enfoque como su función social. Para ello se exploraron aspectos de la propiedad desde diferentes aproximaciones interdisciplinarias, tanto desde el análisis económico del derecho como desde la sociología, la antropología y los estudios de la ciencia y la tecnología, cuyos enfoques ponen el relieve en el carácter relacional de la propiedad y su importancia para la sociabilidad humana. Igualmente, el libro aborda temas como la construcción del concepto de propiedad privada, su relación con formas de dominación colonial o algunos mecanismos que desde la propiedad buscan revertir desigualdades históricas y reparar a las víctimas del despojo. Así mismo, se revisan las intersecciones y los espacios comunes entre la propiedad y los diferentes modelos de justicia transicional.
