Foreign investors often sustain injuries during international armed conflicts. This book sets out to explore how effective investment treaty protections really are. It designs an analytical framework that purports to explain and evaluate how effective and appropriate the application of the investment treaty regime is in times of armed conflict.

This valuable compilation contains treaties and papal bulls dealing with colonial matters. Although they are fundamental documents for the study of early American history, they are not widely available in print form. Containing 203 treaties with historical introductions and extensive bibliographical notes, this book does much to remedy this situation. With the exception of those written in French, the treaties are printed with parallel translations. Each volume contains a thorough index.
