Abstract
International arbitration is a recognized way to resolve economic conflicts. This article asks if state-state investment arbitration (SSIA) is an option for Latin America. It examines the language of investment treaty provisions, cases and arbitral awards involving states, and treaty-making practice in the region. The analysis shows some complementarity between the mechanisms of investor-state arbitration (ISA) and SSIA; sometimes, the latter is the only option. This article concludes that SSIA is neither a backlash nor a more effective mechanism compared to ISA. SSIA constitutes an opportunity for both home and host Latin American states to balance their investment treaty commitments.
