Additional Information
This volume brings together the most important articles, lectures, and essays of Van Vechten (Johnny) Veeder, a towering figure in the worlds of international commercial arbitration and arbitration between States and foreign investors. As noted by Judge Stephen Schwebel in his introduction to the volume, Johnny Veeder was unsurpassed as an arbitrator, tribunal chairman, expositor, analyst, and historian of international arbitration. The writings in this collection address a wide range of topics in the field, including the historical context of international arbitration and its influence on the modern-day practice, the role and responsibilities of the arbitrator, and the principles upholding international arbitration. The included works span the length of Johnny's career, drawing on his extensive learning and practical engagement. They analyse the past and present while asking prescient questions about arbitration's future in a changing global context. The reader of Johnny's essays and other contributions will profit by his extraordinary legal insight, and by the breadth and depth of his devotion to the arbitral process. The volume also gives a sense of his humanity, of his warmth and wit. Loved by his colleagues, his students, and indeed all those who came to know him, this volume is in celebration of the extraordinary achievements of this remarkable jurist, teacher, and human being.
