Could international courts be said to engender feelings of inclusion in specific minority individuals, groups, or States? Does the make-up of the international bench ultimately reinforce or undermine the legitimacy of the courts themselves? The chapter views identity issues specifically through the lens of gender, ethnicity (including race), geography, and judicial culture as tools to validate and strengthen the judicial process, as well as a way of verifying the legitimacy of international courts as institutions capable of providing world class justice with optimal global reach. Diversity and meritocracy are not mutually exclusive: more diverse international benches need not result in any dilution of the quality of the judgments rendered. Concerted and intensified efforts have to be made to ensure that more members of minority groups are appointed as international judges, including steps to ensure that they are not marginalized or excluded from the selection process.","PeriodicalId":394226,"journal":{"name":"Identity and Diversity on the International Bench","volume":"142 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127460216","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the absence of data on the educational and professional backgrounds of all appointed arbitrators, our findings concerning education and the professional background are more tentative. Where we do see significant correlation, is between dissents and appointments by the losing party. Arbitrators appointed by the losing party dissented roughly three times more often than the other arbitrators did. The fact that most dissents are written by arbitrators appointed by the losing party creates the perception that some arbitrators act more like the advocates of their appointers instead of impartial adjudicators. We propose that a standing, two-tier investment court that provides for non-renewable, long-term appointments and fixed salaries could remedy the perceived partiality of party-appointed arbitrators and ensure the survival of dissents.","PeriodicalId":394226,"journal":{"name":"Identity and Diversity on the International Bench","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123853085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
