Private International Law Towards Global Governance: The Theory and Practice of Post-Eclecticism

Adopting a pioneering ‘post-eclectic’ paradigm, this book systematically establishes that private international law must integrate ‘global common values’ into its normative foundation. Building upon this theoretical framework, the author provides a practical roadmap for resolving ‘vertical’ normative conflicts in four critical domains: the digital economy, decentralised finance, transboundary ecological supply chains, and cross-border bioethics. Drawing upon recent landmark judicial decisions across various jurisdictions and the latest developments in Chinese private international law, the book explores how domestic legal systems can adapt jurisdiction, choice of law, and the recognition and enforcement of judgments to safeguard these global common values. This monograph serves as an essential resource for legal scholars, practitioners, and policymakers seeking institutional solutions to secure a sustainable and just globalised world.
