A complex society like ours favors multipositionality of actors, in that they are affiliated with multiple social and professional spheres each having its own networks, interests and governing principles, and generating special bonds of interest. This is especially true for international adjudication as being an international judge or arbitrator is not a career. There is always a before, often an after, and sometimes other professional activities in parallel. Moreover, to have the necessary competences is not enough to be appointed and appointment is more likely for people affiliated to multiple networks.
