BAS VILIZZIO, Magdalena. Estado-empresas transnacionales: cambios en el régimen de solución de controversias inversor-Estado y redefinición de la soberanía a la luz de la protección de los derechos humanos [ ]. Relac. int. [online]. 2020, vol.29, n.59, pp.271-288. ISSN 2314-2766.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/23142766e116.

In the midst of the legitimacy crisis of investor-State dispute resolution frameworks, the dynamics of the relationship between States and transnational businesses impacts on three areas. Firstly, it permeates the behavior of States that, after emblematic disputes or regulatory chills, abandoned the framework or suggested “balanced” agreements. Secondly, the dynamics are fed back with specific disputes, especially those involving human rights (healthy environment, public health, human right to water, etc.). Finally, it manifests in the transition towards the new concept of sovereignty (regulatory sovereignty) based on the protection of public policy space, whose heart is the right to regulate, especially in matters of human rights and public interest.

Keywords : State; Transnational businesses; Investor-State Dispute Resolution; Sovereignty.
