国际法上大概没有什么问题能够比投资更能凸显南北差异了,以资本输出为主的发达国家和以资本输入为主的发展中国家在这个问题上的利益诉求截然不同,立场也相互对立。虽然从经济上来说,双方有着互补的需求,但落实到法律,尤其是国际法层面,这种利益上的互补却造成了难以调和的立法矛盾。 There are probably no problems in international law that can better highlight the difference between North and South than the investment. The developed countries that mainly make capital exports and the developing countries that mainly make capital investments have different demands on this issue and stand against each other. Although economically speaking, the two sides have complementary needs, but the implementation of the law, especially the level of international law, complementarity of interests has created a difficult to reconcile the legislative contradictions.
