Choice of Law
Choice of Law provides an in-depth sophisticated coverage of the choice-of-law part Conflicts Law (or Private International Law) in torts, products liability, contracts, forum-selection and arbitration clauses, insurance, statutes of limitation, domestic relations, property, marital property, and successions. It also covers the constitutional framework and conflicts between federal law and foreign law. The book explains the doctrinal and methodological foundations of choice of law and then focuses on its actual practice, examining not only what courts say but also what they do. It identifies the emerging decisional patterns and extracts predictions about likely outcomes.
Codifying Choice of Law Around the World
Codifying Choice of Law Around the World chronicles, documents, and celebrates the extraordinary, massive codification of Private International Law (PrIL), or Conflict of Laws that has taken place in the last 50 years, from 1962-2012. During this period, the world has witnessed the adoption of nearly 200 PrIL codifications, EU Regulations, and international conventions---more than in all preceding years since the inception of PrIL. This book provides a horizontal comparison and discussion of these codifications and conventions, first by comparing the way they resolve tort and contract conflicts, and then by comparing the answers of these codifications to the fundamental philosophical and met...

This book was originally published as a monograph in the International Encyclopaedia of Laws/Private International Law.
Private International Law
"Following a brief overview of the history of private international law (PIL) and a longer discussion of the nineteenth century (the first golden age of PIL), this volume offers a detailed and insightful review of the last fifty-year period in the international development of PIL (1970-2020), which is the book's main focus. At least in terms of legislative activity, this period may well be the new golden age of PIL, during which we have witnessed the enactment of 101 national or subnational PIL codifications or recodifications, and almost as many international or regional conventions and EU Regulations. These codifications and conventions provide a reliable gauge for assessing the progress of the discipline; they also form the basis for the comparative observations of this book. The first version of this text was published in the Collected Courses of the Hague Academy of International Law (the 2016 General Course on Private International Law or Conflicts Law). The current volume is an expanded, revised edition of that original text, offering In addition to general updating, two new chapters on party autonomy and on the challenges of the internet"--

The Foundation of Choice of Law
This book focuses on the subject of choice of law as a whole and provides an analysis of its various rules, principles, doctrines and concepts. It offers a conceptual account of choice of law, called "choice equality foundation" (CEF), which aims to flesh out the normative basis of the subject. The author reveals that, despite the multiplicity of titles and labels within the myriad choice of law rules and practices of the U.S., Canadian, European, Australian, and other systems, many of them effectively confirm and crystallize CEF's vision of the subject. This alignment signifies the necessarily intimate relationship between theory and practice by which the normative underpinnings of CEF are ...
