"The term 'International Commercial Courts' is a curious one. Certainly, the institutions which are the subject of discussion in this book are courts. The extent to which they are properly characterised as 'international' (whether self-styled by the institutions themselves or referred to as such by commentators) needs some exploration. So too does the extent to which these institutions exclusively deal with commercial matters for, as will be demonstrated, many of these international commercial courts deal with matters which, whilst specialising in commercial law disputes, are in fact much broader than that"-- Provided by publisher.
