'The Role of State Courts in the Course of the Reversal and Nullity, Recognition and Enforcement of Local and Foreign Arbitral Awards' Arbitral jurisdiction needs to be conceived as an autonomous and independent mode of dispute resolution demanding a sufficient own scope for initiative and decision-making powers and thus presenting an equal alternative to state jurisdiction. The thesis does not only include a detailed presentation of individual legally standardized control mechanism by German state courts, but identifies scope and limits thereof in the course of a critical juxtaposition with state court appeals and constitutional complaints.
