Despite the increasingly diversified discourses in international commercial arbitration, this device of socio-legal regulation remains a relatively under-theorized subject. In particular, far too little attention has been paid to analyzing international commercial arbitration through critical approaches such as Third World Approaches to International Law (TWAIL). TWAIL is broadly understood as a methodological reorientation in international law by highlighting the historical links between the foundations of this field of law and the history of capitalism and imperialism as well as the colonial and Eurocentric legacies in the structure and operation of the current international legal regime. With this in mind, two fronts in international commercial arbitration invite a reexamination through a TWAIL perspective and by drawing on the concept of hegemony. One front is the transnational account of arbitration, and the other one is the epistemic community of arbitration. By examining these two notions through a narrative of hegemony of Western legal traditions, we posit that any effective attempt at redefining or reforming arbitral governance structure towards sustaining diversity requires a deeper understanding of historical and current world power structures and creating a vision for the prospect of dehegemonization.

呼吁重新思考国际仲裁:关于跨国性和认知共同体的 TWAIL 视角

尽管国际商事仲裁中的话语越来越多样化,但这种社会法律监管手段仍然是一个相对理论化不足的主题。特别是,很少有人关注通过第三世界国际法方法 (TWAIL) 等批判性方法分析国际商事仲裁。TWAIL 被广泛理解为国际法方法论的重新定位,它强调这一法律领域的基础与资本主义和帝国主义历史之间的历史联系,以及当前国际法律制度结构和运作中的殖民和欧洲中心主义遗产. 考虑到这一点,国际商事仲裁的两条战线需要通过 TWAIL 的视角和利用霸权的概念进行重新审视。一个战线是仲裁的跨国账户,另一个战线是仲裁的认知共同体。通过对西方法律传统霸权的叙述来审视这两个概念,我们认为,任何重新定义或改革仲裁治理结构以维持多样性的有效尝试都需要更深入地了解历史和当前的世界权力结构,并为未来创造愿景。去霸权化。
