This publication is a concise and colourful presentation of the authors' first-hand experience with the remarkable, stormy procedural history of the Iran-U.S. Claims Tribunal in The Hague.Examining each rule in turn, the authors examine the first intent of the UNCITRAL framers, as evident from the travaux preparatoires, and then analyze how the Rules were interpreted, changed and applied at the tribunal.This volume is destined to become a standard reference on the procedural aspects of international commercial arbitration. Parties involved in arbitration, their counsel, and others interested in international practice will treasure this explication of the pitfalls and ambiguities in the real-life application of the Rules, including the role of international political intrigue, in the highly charged atmosphere of multinational proceedings.

Part 1 Establishment of an arbitral tribunal: commencement of arbitration; composition of the arbitral tribunal; challenge and replacement of arbitrators. Part 2 Arbitral proceedings: the start of proceedings; written pleadings; ruling on preliminary issues; evidence; hearings; interim measures of protection; default and waiver. Part 3 Arbitral awards: awards and decisions; applicable law; early termination of proceedings; post-award motions; costs. Appendices: UNICITRAL arbitration rules; final rules of procedure of the Iran-US claims tribunal; Algiers Accords.
