Overview
The Conflict of Laws provides a complete yet accessible survey of English private internation al law. It examines the jurisdiction of English courts (and whether their judgments are enforced and recognised across Europe) and the effect of foreign judgments. It looks at the principles of choice of law for cases which have an international element, for example contracts made or performed in other jurisdictions or with other parties, torts committed overseas or by foreign parties, international fraud, dealings with property overseas, and family and personal matters (particularly marriage, divorce, and annullment) across different jurisdictions.Synopsis
This new addition to the Clarendon Law Series offers a much needed introduction to a complex subject. The Conflict of Laws addresses the jurisdiction of English Courts (and whether their judgments are enforced and recognised overseas) and the effect of foreign judgments in England (whether these are recognised and enforced here). It also looks at the principles of choice of law for cases with an international element which are adjudicated in English courts.
