La interpretación del contrato de arbitraje o convenio arbitral: Artículo ganador de la primera edición del “Premio Elías Campo Villegas” en la categoría doctrinal

Abstract

Part of the jurisprudence interprets the arbitration agreement with caution; as if it were something strange or exceptional. In this work we have tried to delve deeper into the issue to verify if this is justified. To do this, first of all, we have analyzed the cases in which different legal actors and from different perspectives see the need to interpret the arbitration agreement. Finally we have reviewed the interpretative criteria of this contract. We have not found any reason to justify a restrictive interpretation.
