ABSTRACT: The article approaches the main issues arisen from the legislative confirmation concerning the possibility of Public Administration being a party to arbitration proceedings (Law 14.129, May 2015). The discussion of such issues is important in view of the need for the Brazilian Public Administration to adapt to arbitration (and not the opposite) so that the country remains competitive, particularly in the context of public-private partnerships. Thus, this article addresses the issues concerning the choice of the arbitral institution, the appointment of arbitrators, the payment of costs and expenses, attorney fees, seat and language of the arbitral proceedings, as well as the degree of publicity of the arbitration.
