This open access book examines how Europe’s traditionally open investment landscape has, over the past decade, shifted towards a more protectionist stance in response to evolving geopolitical factors.

Featuring contributions from leading scholars, civil servants, and practitioners, it offers a comprehensive analysis through four key themes: investment frameworks, arbitration, sustainability, and future developments. With its expert insights and broad scope, this collection is an invaluable resource for investment lawyers both within and beyond the European Union.
