r Disastrous Decisions: The Human and Organisational Causes of the Gulf of Mexico Blowout By www.cch.ca Published On :: Tue, 22 Jan 2013 12:18:49 GMT Published: May 2012 Disastrous Decisions: The Human and Organisational Causes of the Gulf of Mexico Blowout is an essential reference for all work, health and safety professionals, directors, officers, managers, safety regulators and engineers. Written by noted expert Professor Andrew Hopkins, this book takes the reader into the realm of human and organisational factors that contributed to the Deepwater Horizon disaster in 2010. This event resulted in the loss of 11 lives in the explosions and fire, the sinking of the rig and untold damage to the environment and to the livelihood of Gulf residents. It is important to know what people did, but even more important to know why they did it, so this book attempts to “get inside the heads” of decision-makers and understand how they themselves understood the situations they were in. It also seeks to discover what it was in their organisational environment that encouraged them to think and act as they did. Hopkins provides a sophisticated analysis of the accident that first identifies a series of critical defences that failed and then goes on to explain why they failed.

Full Article r Confidentiality in International Commercial Arbitration By www.cch.ca Published On :: Fri, 27 Sep 2013 10:35:23 GMT Published: June 2011 Confidentiality in International Commercial Arbitration deciphers the current degree of confidentiality in international commercial arbitration as reflected by the most important arbitration rules, national laws, other arbitration-related enactments, and practices of arbitral tribunals and domestic courts globally. Drawing on this data and analysis, the author then sets forth criteria to assess the breach of confidentiality in international arbitration and the proper rules for protecting or sanctioning such breaches. What do we understand by confidentiality in arbitration? What are its limitations? Who is bound to observe it? How can we quantify its breach? In addressing these questions, the book engages such issues as the following: Reasons for disclosure – e.g., for the establishment of a defence, for the enforcement of rights, in the public interest or in the interests of justice Disclosure by consent, express or implied Circumstances triggering statutory obligation of disclosure Recent trends towards greater transparency in investor-State arbitration Court measures in support of arbitral confidentiality such as award of damages for breach of confidentiality Categories of persons bound by confidentiality, including third parties such as witnesses and experts Structured along the main stages of the arbitral process, the analysis covers the duty of confidentiality from the initiation of arbitral proceedings through their unfolding to the issuance of the award and after. The scope of confidentiality is reviewed in the practice of arbitral tribunals and domestic courts, and from the perspective of international arbitration institutions, with detailed attention to various arbitration rules and numerous significant cases. In its elucidation of the amount of confidentiality that ‘veils’ each phase of the arbitral process, and its ground-breaking identification of ‘patterns of disclosure’, this book is sure to raise awareness about the various facets and problems posed by confidentiality in arbitration. Although its scholarly contribution to the law of international commercial arbitration cannot be gainsaid, corporate counsel worldwide will quickly prize its more practical value.

r Confidentiality in International Commercial Arbitration By www.cch.ca Published On :: Fri, 27 Sep 2013 10:35:23 GMT Published: June 2011 Confidentiality in International Commercial Arbitration deciphers the current degree of confidentiality in international commercial arbitration as reflected by the most important arbitration rules, national laws, other arbitration-related enactments, and practices of arbitral tribunals and domestic courts globally. Drawing on this data and analysis, the author then sets forth criteria to assess the breach of confidentiality in international arbitration and the proper rules for protecting or sanctioning such breaches. What do we understand by confidentiality in arbitration? What are its limitations? Who is bound to observe it? How can we quantify its breach? In addressing these questions, the book engages such issues as the following: Reasons for disclosure – e.g., for the establishment of a defence, for the enforcement of rights, in the public interest or in the interests of justice Disclosure by consent, express or implied Circumstances triggering statutory obligation of disclosure Recent trends towards greater transparency in investor-State arbitration Court measures in support of arbitral confidentiality such as award of damages for breach of confidentiality Categories of persons bound by confidentiality, including third parties such as witnesses and experts Structured along the main stages of the arbitral process, the analysis covers the duty of confidentiality from the initiation of arbitral proceedings through their unfolding to the issuance of the award and after. The scope of confidentiality is reviewed in the practice of arbitral tribunals and domestic courts, and from the perspective of international arbitration institutions, with detailed attention to various arbitration rules and numerous significant cases. In its elucidation of the amount of confidentiality that ‘veils’ each phase of the arbitral process, and its ground-breaking identification of ‘patterns of disclosure’, this book is sure to raise awareness about the various facets and problems posed by confidentiality in arbitration. Although its scholarly contribution to the law of international commercial arbitration cannot be gainsaid, corporate counsel worldwide will quickly prize its more practical value.
