Abstract

TDM CETA Special: The Special Issue contains five main sections, examining key characteristics and innovations of CETA relating to investor-state dispute resolution, state-state dispute resolution, issues of scope and attribution of responsibility to the parties to CETA, the codification of substantive protections for investments, and the regulatory space created for CETA's parties to pursue legitimate policy goals through exemption clauses. Taken together, these sections provide a comprehensive overview of key characteristics of CETA, while the individual papers, written by practitioners and academics with experience in Canadian and European jurisdictions, offer diverse perspectives on both the innovations and potential pitfalls of the agreement, as well as proposing corrective reforms of CETA.
