Description
Summary:This article seeks to understand the tension between the interests of investors and the measures adopted by States to fulfill the sustainable development goals. In this sense, international investors adopt stabilization clauses in order to freeze the states regulatory power. Approaches based on thepolice power doctrine and the Statescommitments with international law rules stand out as a wayof limiting the negative effects of stabilization clauses, guaranteeing states'commitment to social development and environmental.
