More than merely an assembly of commentators and interpreters, the
International Academy of Estate and Trust Law is a prestigious body
that effects real change in courts, law reform commissions and
governmental agencies. Its membership - including solicitors,
barristers, notaries, judges and scholars, all experts in trusts,
estate and inheritance law and/or tax law - highlights the
contrasts and comparisons between the pertinent laws of civil and
common law jurisdictions. This volume records the May 2001
conference in San Francisco, which focused on four main topics: the
regulation of charitable organizations in major Western countries;
the rules governing capacity to enter into transactions affecting
property; the ability of creditors to reach assets that are held on
behalf of another; and the issue of testamentary freedom versus
forced heirship. This yearbook signals a departure from earlier
volumes in that the papers under the fourth topic are
after-the-fact essays, reflecting arguments and points of view
originally presented in a debate between the four authors. As
always, this annual continues to offer perspectives on issues of
direct and immediate concern for both civil law and common law
jurisdictions, and to engage the deep interest of researchers,
academics, practitioners, law reform bodies, governmental groups
and their advisers working in this complex and varied field of law.
