My latest for @NWBylines looks at Investor State Dispute Settlement (which is part of the Comprehensive & Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership) that the UK has just joined... #ISDS is not an uncommon element of #internationaltrade agreements (despite the EU cooling on them recently).
I conclude that ISDS 'is a window on how states have either facilitated, or been forced to facilitate, an expansion of the rights of #corporations'.
