Abstract
In the development of a framework for international investments, there was a clear debate between developed and developing countries on what the rules ought to be. At the multilateral level, developing countries fought to have their interests included in the framework for international investments; but at the bilateral level, through Bilateral Investment Treaties (BITs), they agreed to the opposite of what they were fighting for at the multilateral level. Certain lenses used to analyse the framework cannot avoid seeing paradoxical behaviour. However, when using the lens of power to analyse the framework, not only can the alleged paradox be resolved, but other challenging questions surrounding the international investment framework can be answered as well.
