Today, it is monitoring the progress offifty-one prosecutions across fifteen states for acts that amount to international crimes. The article explores the evolution ofsuch quasi- criminal jurisdiction in the regional rights courts, and juxtaposes this develop- ment to the work of the international criminal tribunals. Clash of Paradigms: Actors and Analogies Shaping the Investment Treaty System Anthea Roberts When seeking to understand the nature of the investment treaty system, partic- ipants routinely draw analogies from and with public international law, inter- national commercial arbitration, public law, trade law, and human rights law. However, these analogies frequently point to distinct (and sometimes clashing) conclusions as a result of differences in their underlying paradigms. This article examines what each paradigm reveals and obscures about the investment treaty system and how the backgrounds and interests of different actors inform their choice of analogies.
