The United States and Great Britain were pioneers in the use of arbitration to resolve their differences. At the First International Conference of American States in 1890, a plan for systematic arbitration was developed, but not accepted. The Hague Peace Conference of 1899, saw the major world powers agreed to a system of arbitration and the creation of a Permanent Court of Arbitration. Arbitration was widely discussed among diplomats and elites in the 1890–1914 era. New York Convention, 1958 and United Nations Convention on the Recognition Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards, 1958 paved way for International cooperation in execution of Awards. UNCITRAL Model Law on International Commercial Arbitration, 1985 prompted Member Nations to amend and legislate Laws to bring uniformity on International Arbitration and execution of International Awards.
