At the time of its establishment in 1981 as part of the resolution of the Iranian hostage crisis, few foresaw the growth of the Iran-United States Claims Tribunal as the most innovative and influential arbitral tribunal of its time. Over and over again it has dealt with new and challenging disputes and arrived at resolutions that set new precedents in international law, particularly in respect of state responsibility. This volume brings together a number of major contributions by leading scholars and observers of the Tribunal's work. Each chapter considers a different and significant aspect of Tribunal case law, including the eligibility of claimants, the legal basis of contract, expropriation and property claims, and standards of compensation and valuation. "The Iran-US Claims Tribunal" has already been recognized by the international law community as the leading critical synthesis of the Tribunal's jurisprudence and the foremost evaluation of its impact on the substantive law of state responsibility.

Extending this analysis of their acclaimed 1975 work, Weston and Lillich (with the addition of David Bederman) bring the log of international claims up to 1995. This volume provides authoritative translations and annotations of lump sum agreements concluded between 1975 and 1995 (and hitherto unavailable agreements concluded before 1975). Detailed commentary includes analysis of such issues as eligible claimants, substantive bases of claims, and standards of compensation under the agreements. The authors leave no doubt of the continued importance of lump sum agreements to international claims practice and the dynamic law of State responsibility.
