considering the dramatic ongoing codification movement taking place
within Chinese civil law, because one of the essential values of
comparative law is to find alternative solutions to one's own legal
system.' - Jiayou Shi, Renmin University of China, Beijing, China

Guide to Consumer Insolvency Proceedings in Europe provides the
necessary information in the largest, most up-to-date and
comprehensive book on this topic. Assisting the readers in their

This book is devoted to the applicable law to contractual and
non-contractual obligations in the European Union. The Rome I and
II Regulations provide uniform conflict-of-laws rules in order to
avoid undue forum-shopping. In theory, all national courts of EU
Member States (excluding Denmark) apply the same rules determining
the applicable law. Rome I and Rome II in Practice examines whether
the theory has been put into practice and assesses the difficulties
that may have arisen in the interpretation and application of these
Regulations. Such a study appears invaluable as the Rome I and II
Regulations may be seen as a critical stepping stone towards the
construction of a true and far-reaching European Private
International Law. Providing clear and detailed insights into the
national case law of most EU Member States, as well as the case law
of the Court of Justice of the European Union, and followed by a
comparative analysis, this book is a valuable resource for
practitioners, the judiciary and academics who are interested in
understanding how EU law is applied on national and European
levels.
