This collection of essays contains in-depth analyses of eighteen
landmark cases in private international law, from Penn v Lord
Baltimore in 1750 to Brownlie v FS Cairo (Nile Plaza) LLC in 2021.
The contributors are experts drawn from academia and practice as
well as from the bench. Case law has been a central driver in the
legal development of the English conflict of laws. Judge-made law
does not just supply a source of law itself but also acts as the
crucible in which other sources of law - legislation, international
Treaty, European regulation, and ideas generated by jurists such as
Joseph Story and Albert Venn Dicey - have been tested and applied.
This book sheds new light on the past and future evolution of
private international law by focusing on the landmark cases which
have fundamentally shaped the way that we think about this subject.
The focus is on the English common law, but landmarks in Scotland,
Australia and Canada are covered as well. Many of them concern
disputes between commercial parties; others deal with issues such
as marriage and domicile; and some arise from controversies in
political, constitutional and international affairs. The landmark
cases tackled in this collection address significant issues in
civil jurisdiction, governing law, foreign judgments, and public
policy. The essays place those landmarks in their historical
context, explain their contemporary importance, and consider their
future relevance.
