Arbitration and mediation in Brazil and China

Abstract

As two of the world’s most dynamic economies, Brazil and China have forged a strategic partnership that spans 30 years, with 2024 marking the 50th anniversary of the reestablishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries. With China being Brazil’s biggest trading partner and a major investor, there is an urgent need to deepen the dialogue between the legal systems and legal professionals of both nations. Arbitration and mediation in Brazil and China is a product of a long-standing partnership between FGV Direito Rio and the Chinese International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission (CIETAC). This book brings together leading specialists to explore the crucial issues related to arbitration and mediation, which have become increasingly relevant in both countries. This is a must-read for arbitrators, mediators, lawyers, and experts in dispute resolution who wish to learn from the legal cultures of these two vibrant nations.
