ITA Publications
Pursuant to its mandate to promote arbitration to resolve transnational commercial disputes, the ITA has, since 1986, published its Scoreboard of Adherence to Transnational Arbitration Treaties. The Scoreboard is published in its quarterly newsletter, News and Notes. In recent years, ITA has created a Video Library of educational video programs designed for use by law professors and attorneys and available to the public for purchase. Since 2002, ITA together with others has presented KluwerArbitration.com, the most useful and comprehensive website on international arbitration on the Internet.
Scoreboard of Adherence to Transnational Arbitration Treaties

The Scoreboard of Adherence to Transnational Arbitration Treaties is a concise and comprehensive reference resource which reports the current status of adherence of all of the countries of the world to the primary international arbitration treaties.

The Scoreboard is published quarterly in the ITA's newsletter, New and Notes and is also available online at the ITA website.
