Настоящая статья дает читателям возможность получить представление о направлениях обсуждаемой в настоящее время в ООН реформы системы урегулирования споров между иностранными инвесторами и государствами. В статье также дается обзор ключевых позиций разных догматических лагерей по направлениям предстоящей реформы. Автор рассматривает и анализирует отдельные позиции по основным блокам дискуссий от четырех делегаций: России, США, Канады и Европейского союза.</p></sec><sec><title>Материалы и методы</title><p>Материалы и методы. Материалом для исследования послужили официальные стенограммы 34-й и 35-й встреч Рабочей группы III, которые находятся в свободном доступе на официальном сайте ЮНСИТРАЛ как часть общей политики по обеспечению транспарентности всего процесса. Вместе с тем при подготовке данной статьи автором было уделено внимание комментариям иностранных юристов, получивших статус наблюдателей в ходе сессий Рабочей группы III. Методологическую основу исследования составили общенаучные и частнонаучные методы познания.</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты исследования</title><p>Результаты исследования. В ходе про-веденного исследования автор резюмирует позиции делегатов в составе Рабочей группы III в отношении планируемой реформы, озвученные российскими и иностранными делегациями, и выдвигает идею о прямой связи этих точек зрения с господствующей доктриной относительно места международного инвестиционного права в системе международного права.</p></sec><sec><title>Обсуждение и выводы</title><p>Обсуждение и выводы. В настоящей статье автор обращает внимание на принципиальные различия в позициях делегатов в отношении таких международно-публичных характеристик арбитражной системы, как многосторонность и транспарентность. В статье рассматривается проблема определения конкретных действий по организации реформы (или реформ), а также всего рабочего процесса. Опираясь на официальные позиции российских и зарубежных делегатов, а также на имеющиеся официальные документы ЮНСИТРАЛ, автор делает вывод о неизбежном продолжительном и неоднозначном процессе реформирования системы. Вместе с тем отмечается, что у данного процесса появляются четко очерченные границы и направления.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><sec><title>Introduction</title><p>Introduction. In light of the ongoing UN discussions over the investor-state dispute settlement reform, this article offers readers an opportunity to develop an understanding of not only the current reform process, but also of the directions of reforms and the key positions advanced by various dogmatic camps. The author reviews and analyses the most relevant quotes from the first two meetings of the UNCITRAL Working Group sessions on states’ concerns as presented by four delegations from Russia, the USA, Canada, and the European Union.</p></sec><sec><title>Materials and methods</title><p>Materials and methods. Сonsistent with the mandate’s call for the process to be fully transparent, the recordings of the sessions are made available online. The quotes from the first two meetings (34 th and 35 th ) of the UNCITRAL Working Group sessions, therefore, constitute the main resources for this article. There are occasional references to the comments made by international lawyers who received an Observer Delegate status in the Working Group III discussions. As for the methodology, the author opt to employ popular scientific research methods.</p></sec><sec><title>Research results</title><p>Research results. As a result of the conducted research the author offers a comprehensive overview of the delegates' positions with respect to the reform as advanced by Russian and foreign delegates, and brings forward an argument about a direct line between those positions and a prevailing doctrine on the place of international investment law within international law.</p><p>Discussion and conclusions. In this article the author underscores a critical distinction in the positions towards the public features of dispute settlement such as multilateralism and transparency. The article reveals the challenge in finding a proper definition for concrete steps of a reform (or reforms), and a framework for working process. Based on the available official positions of the states, and the UNCITRAL documents, the author reaches a conclusion about a long and controversial reform process. Yet the directions of reforms are becoming increasingly clear.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>реформа</kwd><kwd>ЮНСИТРАЛ</kwd><kwd>инвестиционные споры</kwd><kwd>разрешение споров</kwd><kwd>ин-вестиционное право</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>reform</kwd><kwd>UNCITRAL</kwd><kwd>investment disputes</kwd><kwd>dispute settlement</kwd><kwd>investment law</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Рачков И.В. 2016.
