Abstract

The study of arbitral awards is still somewhat obscure when it comes to their ability to form precedents to future arbitrators and state court judges. In contrast, the study of the decision-making process itself is still very much insufficient when it comes to arbitration, mainly because the arbitrator’s duties when deciding are still not obvious. In this text we further our attempt at construing a theory of precedent that is consonant to our idea of law.
