Webinaire | Legal Innovation to Align Free Trade, Investment, and Sustainable Development in Africa

In his recent book on Free trade and investment law in Africa (Pedone, 2024), Arnaud de Nanteuil offers a clarification of the interplay between the diverse sets of rules governing free trade and investment protection in Africa. He additionally takes stock of the direction they are charting. He notably explores how African free trade and investment frameworks integrate traditional principles of free trade and investment protection, while simultaneously safeguarding the ability of States to act in the public interest, particularly to promote environmental protection. African Governments are thus striving to advance a novel approach to international economic law—one that seeks to balance the protection of economic interests with broader societal and environmental objectives.
