Features: Arbitration (also known as adjudication) is a method of resolving disputes where the parties submit their dispute to a third party for impartial judgment and a decision, which is binding on both parties. Recognizing arbitration as an autonomous system essentially acknowledges its non-domestic nature and the parties' unrestricted right to control the arbitration process. Accordingly, parties can freely choose the legal system applicable to arbitration, whether substantive or procedural. Under autonomy, the commercial society constitutes an "international environment" capable of developing its own laws, playing a role in resolving commercial disputes equivalent to that of the International Court of Justice. The book is divided into ten chapters: Chapter 1: Introduction, Chapter 2: International Commercial Arbitration Conference, Chapter 3: International Commercial Arbitration Tribunal, Chapter 4: Proceedings of International Commercial Arbitration, Chapter 5: Arbitration Law in International Commercial Arbitration, Chapter 6: Substantive Law in International Commercial Arbitration, Chapter 7: International Commercial Arbitration Law, Chapter 8: Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards, Chapter 9: Recognition and Enforcement of Arbitral Awards in China, Chapter 10: State Immunity in International Commercial Arbitration.
