The Brussels I Regulation has undergone a lengthy review process,
resulting in Regulation (EU) 1215/2012 of 12 December 2012 on
jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of judgments in
civil and commercial matters (recast). The provisions of the new
Regulation apply from 10 January 2015. This work, written by a
number of leading experts on the subject, provides a commentary on
the Recast Regulation. It contains a concise article-by-article
commentary on all provisions of the recast Regulation with
reference to the existing case law of the European Court of Justice
and leading national decisions, and provides additional focus on
the newly introduced changes, in particular to the provisions on
lis pendens and the recognition and enforcement of judgments.
The past 30 years have seen important legal developments in relation to the immunities and privileges enjoyed by the subjects of international law, not least the enactment in several jurisdictions of detailed legislation on these issues. The editors have collected key materials, including international agreements and domestic legislation, concerning the immunities of states, governmental bodies, state owned entities and agents. Focussing on legislation in the United Kingdom and the United States of America, the commentary looks at the application of immunities and privileges as well their practical significance for practitioners in both jurisdictions.
Statutes on the Conflict of Laws provides students with the
principal, current EU and UK legislation encountered in the study
of private international law in one clear and easy-to-use volume.
The legislation is not annotated, enabling the book to be used in
examinations. It has been structured and designed so that students
can find the material they need quickly and efficiently, with a
table of contents organised chronologically by source type, and
alphabetical index.
A nation's prosperity depends not only on the willingness of its
businesses to export goods and services, and of its citizens and
residents to travel to take advantage of opportunities overseas,
but also on the willingness of the businesses and citizens of other
nations to cross the nation's borders to do business. Economic
expansion, and parallel increases in tourism and immigration, have
brought Australians more frequently into contact with the laws and
legal systems of other nations. In particular, in recent years,
trade with partners in the Asia-Pacific Region has become
increasingly important to the nation's future. At the same time,
Australian courts are faced with a growing number of disputes
involving foreign facts and parties. In recognition of these
developments, and the need to ensure that the applicable rules meet
the needs both of transacting parties and society, the
Attorney-General's Department launched in 2012 a full review of
Australian rules of private international law. This collection
examines the state and future of Australian private international
law against the background of the Attorney-General's review. The
contributors approach the topic from a variety of perspectives
(judge, policy maker, practitioner, academic) and with practical
and theoretical insights as to operation of private international
law rules in Australia and other legal systems.

A Conflict of Laws Companion brings together a group of expert
authors to write essays in honour of Professor Adrian Briggs QC.
Professor Briggs has been teaching in Oxford since 1980, and
throughout that period, he has been an instrumental figure in
shaping the conflict of laws in the UK and elsewhere and has
inspired generations of students (future practitioners and judges)
to take a close interest in the subject. His books, including
Agreements on Jurisdiction and Choice of Law (OUP, 2008), The
Conflict of Laws (4th edn, Clarendon, 2019), and Private
International Law in English Courts (OUP, 2015), are among the most
widely used and cited texts on the subject. The book is divided
into four sections, exploring conflict of laws issues of different
kinds and engaging with Professor Briggs' work on a diverse range
of topics. Contributions by Professor Briggs' former colleagues
build on his work in the conflict of laws and his immeasurable
contributions as a teacher and researcher at the University of
Oxford, not only to undergraduate teaching, but to his college (St
Edmund Hall), the Law faculty, and the university. The book
includes short personal submissions from each of the authors, all
of whom studied alongside, have been taught or supervised by, or
worked closely with Professor Briggs.
As people, business, and information cross borders, so too do legal
disputes. Globalisation means that courts need to apply principles
of private international law with increasing frequency. Thus, as
the Law Society of New South Wales recognised in its 2017 report
The Future of Law and Innovation in the Profession, knowledge of
private international law is increasingly important to legal
practice. In particular, it is essential to the modern practice of
commercial law. This book considers key issues at the intersection
of commercial law and private international law. The authors
include judges, academics and practising lawyers, from Australia,
New Zealand, Singapore and the United Kingdom. They bring a common
law perspective to contemporary problems concerning the key issues
in private international law: jurisdiction, choice of law, and
recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. The book also
addresses issues of evidence and procedure in cross-border
litigation, and the impact of recent developments at the Hague
Conference on Private International Law, including the Convention
on Choice of Court Agreements on common law principles of private
international law.

This updating supplement brings the Main Work The Rome II
Regulation up to date and incorporates substantive developments
since publication of the book in December 2008. In particular it
draws attention to legislation implementing the Regulation in the
United Kingdom, to recent ECJ cases concerning other EC private
international law instruments, to new decisions of the English
courts concerning the pre-Regulation rules of applicable law, and
to recent books and journal articles providing further colour to
the picture surrounding the Regulation since its adoption in
January 2009. It is an essential purchase for all who already own
the Main Work, and maintains its currency.
