European Private International Law - Commercial Litigation in the EU (Broché)

As one of the most definitive texts on the market, European Private International Law provides an essential guide for both students and practitioners to the complex field of international litigation within the EU. The private international law of the Member States is increasingly regulated by European law, making private international law ever less "national" and ever more EU based. Consequentially EU law in this area has penetrated national law to a very high degree, making it an essential area of study and an area of increasing importance to practising lawyers.
This book provides a thorough overview of core European private international law, including the Brussels I, Rome I and Rome II Regulations (jurisdiction, applicable law for contracts and tort), while additional chapters deal with private international law and insolvency, freedom of establishment, and the impact of PIL on corporate social responsibility. The second edition was cited frequently by Advocate Generals at the European Court of Justice.
This third edition is a substantial revision and update. It also considers the impact of Brexit on commercial litigation in the EU.
