PREAMBLE序言

The Contracting States

Considering the need for international cooperation for economic development, and the role of private international investment therein;

Bearing in mind the possibility that from time to time disputes may arise in connection with such investment between Contracting States and nationals of other Contracting States;

Recognizing that while such disputes would usually be subject to national legal processes, international methods of settlement may be appropriate in certain cases;

Attaching particular importance to the availability of facilities for international conciliation or arbitration to which Contracting States and nationals of other Contracting States may submit such disputes if they so desire;

Desiring to establish such facilities under the auspices of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development;

Recognizing that mutual consent by the parties to submit such disputes to conciliation or to arbitration through such facilities constitutes a binding agreement which requires in particular that due consideration be given to any recommendation of conciliators, and that any arbitral award be complied with; and Declaring that no Contracting State shall by the mere fact of its ratification, acceptance or approval of this Convention and without its consent be deemed to be under any obligation to submit any particular dispute to conciliation or arbitration,

Have agreed as follows:

　考虑到为经济发展进行国际合作的需要和私人国际投资在这方面的作用；

　　注意到各缔约国和其他缔约国的国民之间可能不时发生与这种投资有关的争端；

　　认识到虽然此种争端通常将遵守国内法律程序，但在某些情况下，采取国际解决方法可能是适当的；

　　特别重视提供国际调解或仲裁的便利，各缔约国和其他缔约国国民如果有此要求可以将此种争端交付国际调解或仲裁；

　　愿在国际复兴开发银行的主持下建立此种便利；

　　认识到双方同意借助此种便利将此种争端交付调解或仲裁，构成了一种有约束力的协议，该协议特别要求对调解员的任何建议给予适当考虑，对任何仲裁裁决予以遵守；

　　宣告不能仅仅由于缔约国批准、接受或核准本公约这一事实而不经其同意就认为该缔约国具有将任何特定的争端交付调解或仲裁的义务，

达成协议如下：
