Karim A. Youssef, CEO of Youssef & Partners (Youssef + Partners), has written a highly acclaimed publication entitled “Consent in Context: Fulfilling the Promise of International Arbitration, Multi-contract and Non-contract arbitration“, West, 2009 – 2012. In this publication, Youssef examines the widely accepted statement that international arbitration is or ought to be “consensual by nature” in order to critically examine the dichotomy between the requirement of an agreement to arbitrate and the reality of multi-party and non-contractual arbitration. With precise and rigorous analysis, Youssef demonstrates how consent is increasingly marginalized within modern arbitration, threatening to extinguish the promise of international arbitration as a cost- and time-efficient mode of dispute resolution.
