Since 2002 his research has been centered around the application of law, both national and international, within International Commercial Arbitration, including such institutions as the Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce and the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes.
In 2000, Professor Spiermann was awarded the PhD degree by the University of Cambridge for his thesis "The Rise of the International Judiciary - International Legal Argument in the Permanent Court of International Justice".
Professor Ole Spiermann has published widely on dispute settlement, International Law and European and Human Rights Law in leading journals in the Nordic countries as well as internationally, including European Journal of International Law, British Yearbook of International Law, American Journal of International Law and Arbitration International.
