《2012年美國雙邊投資協(xié)定范本》透明度條款研究
[Abstract]:The 2012 US Model bilateral Investment Agreement (hereinafter referred to as "2012 Model") is the latest model that the United States has introduced after the 2004 Model bilateral Investment Agreement. The transparency clause is one of the key provisions of the revised model. The revised model expands the content of the transparency clause and further improves the transparency requirement. This is mainly because promoting transparency and treating private investment in an open, transparent and non-discriminatory manner is one of the goals of the BITs program. The United Nations Commission on International Trade Law has also held extensive discussions on transparency in the field of investment. As a key revision of the provisions, the 2012 Model 2012 transparency clause is bound to cause concern to potential parties to the BITs in the United States. Although the Model 2012 transparency clause is very precise in terms, there may still be semantic ambiguities, which may make it face a potential interpretation dilemma. Moreover, because of the further increase in transparency requirements, it may be an obstacle to negotiations. Only a handful of transparency clauses are included in our bits, and the practical experience in the International Center for the settlement of Investment disputes is scarce. At present, our country is starting the bit negotiation with the United States again, so it is urgent to study the transparency clause in Model 2012. Because the concept of "transparency" is not unified in the field of international economic law, in order to make this paper have a clear context, the first part of this paper begins with the concrete concept which is easy to be confused. This section briefly introduces the definition of transparency, transparency clause, and the role of transparency clauses in international investment law. In order to have a clearer understanding of the transparency clause, lay the foundation for the discussion below. In the second part, the text analysis method is used to analyze the transparency provisions of Model 2012. The third part summarizes some distinctive features of Model 2012 by comparing with other treaty transparency provisions. For example, the model embodies the penetration of WTO transparency principle, represents the highest level of bits, and reflects the trend of socialization. On the basis of the above analysis, the fourth part of this paper points out the potential dilemma that the transparency clause will face, that is, the model still has semantic ambiguity. In the current system of international investment law, it may be difficult to explain the semantic ambiguity of transparency clause. And because the Model 2012 demands for transparency are further enhanced, such high demands are likely to create obstacles to bit negotiations. In order to deal with the above dilemma, the author puts forward the two ways of giving play to the role of case law and the role of States parties in the interpretation of treaties. In the last part of the article, on the basis of the above argument and combining with the relevant practice of our country's bits transparency clause, this paper discusses the position that our country should adhere to in the bit negotiation between China and the United States on the transparency clause of "Model 2012". That is, the general acceptance of transparency provisions, but in the specific content should be treated differently. In order to make the negotiations smooth, our country should also improve the transparency of the legislative process.
