The Secret World of Investor Courts is a podcast made by the Global Justice Now Youth Network, exploring corporate power, colonialism and climate justice in the shadowy system of trade and investment deals.
In this first episode, youth network activists Natalia and Misha explore the colonial origins and history of the investor-state dispute settlement regime - how we came to a world where foreign corporations can sue governments for billions in closed-door tribunals.
You'll hear contributions from:
Nicolás Perrone, Professor of Economic Law at the University of Valparaíso in Chile, and author Investment Treaties & the Legal Imagination: How Foreign Investors Play By Their Own Rules.
Cleodie Rickard, trade justice campaigner at Global Justice Now.
