Pasicrisie internationale 1794-1900: Histoire documentaire des arbitrages internationaux

When the United Nations undertook the publication of the Reports of International Arbitral Awards, the Pasicrisie Internationale was identified as being one of the rare, truly general collections of international case law in existence. In fact, in deciding to publish the arbitration clauses and arbitral awards from 1794 to 1900, Henri La Fontaine was doing pioneering work, foreshadowing the Reports by half a century. At the end of the 20th century, the Pasicrisie Internationale remains just as pertinent as it was when first published in 1902. This collection of arbitral awards, despite its modest appearance, is considered to have contributed greatly to the development of international arbitration case law.
