Abstract

The dichotomy between jurisdiction and admissibility developed in public international law has drawn much attention from arbitrators and judges in recent years. Inspired by Paulsson's ‘tribunal versus claim’ lodestar, attempts have been made to transpose the distinction from public international law to investment treaty arbitration, yielding a mixed reception from tribunals. Remarkably, a second leap of transposition has found firmer footing in commercial arbitration, culminating in the prevailing view of the common law courts in England, Singapore and Hong Kong that arbitral decisions on admissibility are non-reviewable. However, this double transposition from international law to commercial arbitration is misguided. First, admissibility is a concept peculiar to international law and not embodied in domestic arbitral statutes. Second, its importation into commercial arbitration risks undermining the fundamental notion of jurisdiction grounded upon the consent of parties. Third, the duality of ‘night and day’ postulated by Paulsson to distinguish between reviewable and non-reviewable arbitral rulings is best reserved to represent the basic dichotomy between jurisdiction and merits.
国际仲裁中管辖权与可受理性的二分法
近年来,国际公法中形成的管辖权与可受理性之间的二分法引起了仲裁员和法官的广泛关注。在保尔森的 "法庭与申诉 "标准的启发下,有人试图将国际公法中的区别移植到投资条约仲裁中,结果法庭的反应不一。值得注意的是,第二次跳跃式移植在商事仲裁中找到了更坚实的基础,最终英国、新加坡和香港的普通法法院普遍认为,关于可受理性的仲裁决定是不可复审的。然而,这种从国际法到商事仲裁的双重移植是错误的。首先,可受理性是国际法特有的概念,并未体现在国内仲裁法规中。其次,将其引入商事仲裁有可能破坏以当事人同意为基础的管辖权这一基本概念。第三,保尔森为区分可审查仲裁裁决和不可审查仲裁裁决而假设的 "白天与黑夜 "的二元性最好保留,以代表管辖权和案情之间的基本二元性。
