  • More about The Conflict of Laws


The Conflict of Laws provides an introduction and analysis of the rules of private international law as they apply in England, covering a broad range of topics and assessing the impact of Brexit changes. It emphasizes the theoretical underpinnings of the subject, which are strong, rational, and robust, and identifies areas in which reform or other development may be needed.

The Conflict of Laws offers an in-depth exploration and analysis of the principles governing private international law as they apply in England. It divides the topic into three distinct branches: the conflict of jurisdictions, the conflict of judgments, and the conflict of laws. This comprehensive volume covers a wide range of subjects, encompassing diverse aspects such as examining different jurisdictions, the law applicable to contractual and non-contractual obligations, the influence of foreign judgments, and more.

After a period of uncertainty following the Brexit upheaval, this fifth edition presents the subject as it has settled in the aftermath. It aims to illustrate how the retained (or assimilated) EU law has been integrated into the overall structure of private international law as it evolved in common law, and to assess the extent to which the nature of the subject has been altered or otherwise affected by the Brexit changes. The book identifies areas where reform or further development may be necessary. However, the overarching theme throughout is that the theoretical underpinnings of the subject are strong, if not always fully appreciated, are rational and robust. It is designed to explain why the detailed rules that make up a subject, which may initially appear complex, are sensible and coherent.

The Conflict of Laws provides a valuable resource for scholars, practitioners, and students interested in understanding the complex dynamics of private international law in England. It offers a comprehensive and up-to-date account of the rules and principles governing international legal relationships, and its insights into the post-Brexit landscape are particularly relevant in today's globalized world.
