Download or read book Droit international priv written by Bernard Audit and published by . This book was released on 2018-09-25 with total page 1216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le droit international privé embrasse l'ensemble des relations entre les particuliers (personnes physiques et morales), d'ordre économique ou personnel, qui se nouent au travers des frontières. Traditionnellement réputée pour la réflexion théorique que suscite son objet principal, les conflits de lois dans l'espace, la discipline a également acquis une importance pratique à la mesure du développement contemporain des échanges internationaux de toute nature. En introduction sont présentées les sources de la matière, au sein desquelles le droit européen a pris aujourd'hui la place prépondérante, ainsi que les notions fondamentales concernant le droit de la nationalité et le statut des étrangers. La première partie de l'ouvrage traite, d'une part, de la détermination du droit applicable à une situation internationale (principes et méthodes de solution des conflits de lois), d'autre part, du contentieux privé international ou conflits de juridictions dans leurs différents aspects : compétence internationale des tribunaux nationaux, éléments de procédure spécifiques, reconnaissance et exécution des jugements étrangers. La seconde partie expose l'application de l'ensemble des règles précédentes dans les branches particulières du droit privé, distinguant les relations extra-patrimoniales (personnes et rapports de famille), patrimoniales (biens, délits, contrats, régimes matrimoniaux, successions) et d'affaires (activités internationales des sociétés, procédures d'insolvabilité, arbitrage commercial international). L'ouvrage a été conçu aussi bien pour les étudiants et jeunes chercheurs, que pour les praticiens. Il est à jour des règlements les plus récents de l'Union européenne. Bernard Audit, agrégé des Facultés de droit, diplômé de l'Académie de droit international de La Haye et Master of Laws (LL.M.)

Download or read book Boundaries of European Private International Law written by Jean-Sylvestre Bergé and published by Primento. This book was released on 2015-04-22 with total page 747 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: European private international law is by now based mainly on a large body of uniform rules such as the Regulations Rome I, Rome II, Brussels I, Brussels I bis. This significant legislative output, however, does not take place in a vacuum. Rules of private international law have been earlier (and still are) adopted at national, international and even European level in scattered regulations and directives. The recent plethora of private international law rules gives rise to issues of delineation and calls for some sort of ordering as gaps, overlaps and contradictions become flagrant. At the same time, the resulting interactions can offer new insight, ideas and even opportunities at a more theoretical level. This book gathers a collection of essays resulting out of a series of international seminars held in Lyon, Barcelona and Louvain-la-Neuve. During those seminars, young researchers selected in an open call for papers had the opportunity to discuss their views among themselves as well as with various specialists of the field, such as more senior academics, EU civil servants, national experts and representatives of other international organisations. The book offers the fresh views of those who will in the future shape the dialectic between the various sources of private international law and attempts to launch a discussion on the “living together” of legal sources. Two ranges of topics are addressed in the book: - firstly, the relationship between EU private international law and national law (substantial and procedural) and/or international law (international instruments of private international law or of uniform substantive law); and - secondly, the relationship between EU private international law and other aspects of EU law (internal market rules of primary law, harmonisation through secondary law and other pieces of legislation enacted in the realm of the area of freedom, security and justice).

Download or read book Economic Sanctions in EU Private International Law written by Tamás Szabados and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-01-23 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic sanctions are instruments of foreign policy. However, they can also affect legal relations between private parties – principally in contract. In such cases, the court or arbitration tribunal seized must decide whether to give effect to the economic sanction in question. Private international law functions as a 'filter', transmitting economic sanctions that originate in public law to the realm of private law. The aim of this book is to examine how private international law rules can influence the enforcement of economic sanctions and their related foreign policy objectives. A coherent EU foreign policy position – in addition to promoting legal certainty and predictability – would presuppose a uniform approach not only concerning the economic sanctions of the EU, but also with regard to the restrictive measures imposed by third countries. However, if we examine in detail the application of economic sanctions by Member States' courts and arbitral tribunals, we find a somewhat different picture. This book argues that this can be explained in part by the divergence of private international law approaches in the Member States.

Download or read book Droit international priv des obligations contractuelles written by Gwendoline Lardeux and published by . This book was released on 2016-09-27 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'importance du droit international n'est plus à démontrer. La mondialisation de l'économie et l'intégration européenne sont à l'origine d'un essor sans équivalent des relations internationales privées. Or le contrat est le support juridique par excellence des relations économiques. Une étude des règles de droit international privé qui lui sont consacrées s'avère donc indispensable. Le droit international privé des obligations contractuelles est à l'image de l'évolution globale de la matière. De nationale et prétorienne, elle est tout d'abord devenue européenne et législative Or l'européanisation de ses sources ne pouvait pas rester sans incidence sur les règles la gouvernant. Ainsi les notions de droit des contrats sont-elles autonomes des droits nationaux et forgées par la Cour de justice. Partant, la notion même d'obligations contractuelles diffère quelque peu aujourd'hui de celle retenue par le droit français, divergence qui s'étend à l'ensemble des contrats régis par le droit international privé de l'Union européenne (contrats de vente, d'entreprise, de distribution...). De même, devenu européen, le droit international privé change peu à peu d'objet : devant à l'origine assurer la meilleure combinaison possible des différentes législations nationales, il lui est parfois demandé aujourd'hui de gommer ces divergences afin d'assurer l'effectivité des libertés institutionnelles de circulation. Enfin, droit international privé du contrat à l'origine, cette matière est marquée par la spécialisation, voire l'hyperspécialisation, qui est celle de toute réglementation aujourd'hui. Elle est alors devenue un droit international privé des contrats spéciaux. Par conséquent, à côté de l'étude des règles de portée générale (Partie I), il convient d'accorder une place importante à celles consacrées à certains contrats, tels les contrats de transport, de consommation, de travail, d'assurance (Partie II).

Download or read book The Law Applicable to Cross border Contracts involving Weaker Parties in EU Private International Law written by María Campo Comba and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-12-07 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides answers to the following questions: how do traditional principles of private international law relate to the requirements of the internal market for the realisation of the EU’s objectives regarding the protection of weaker parties such as consumers and employees? When and how should private international law ensure the applicability of EU directives concerning the protection of weaker parties? Are the EU’s current private international law, rules on conflict of laws, and private international law approach sufficient to ensure the realisation of its objectives regarding weaker contracting parties, or is a different approach to private international law called for? The book concludes with several proposed amendments, mainly regarding the Rome I Regulation on the law applicable to contractual obligations, as well as suggestions on the EU’s current approach to private international law. This book is primarily intended for an academic audience and to help achieve better regulation in the future. It also seeks to dispel certain lingering doubts regarding the current practice of EU private international law.

Download or read book Private International Law written by Symeon C. Symeonides and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-08 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book compares the two golden ages of private international law (PIL): the first is the era of Story and Savigny in the nineteenth century, while the second comprises the last fifty years. The period between 1970 and 2020 has been one of rapid changes and dense legislative responses, exemplified by the adoption of over one hundred national PIL codifications and almost as many international or regional conventions and regulations. These instruments provide a rich source for this book’s incisive and instructive comparisons and a fertile ground for a reliable assessment of the progress of PIL as a discipline. This book skillfully uncovers and meticulously documents the gradual—and largely unnoticed—transition of PIL from the idealism of the nineteenth century to the pragmatic eclecticism and pluralism of the twenty-first century.

Download or read book Insurance in Private International Law written by Francesco Seatzu and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2003-07-17 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a much-needed analysis of this very important subject for international business lawyers,including discussion of the jurisdictional and choice of laws issues arising from cross-border contracts of insurance and reinsurance concluded by electronic means. This book is the first published in England to devote itself to a detailed analysis of the choice of laws rules in the E.C. Insurance Directives. It is aimed at academics and practitioners, at private international lawyers and at insurance lawyers. The private international law rules of the E.C. Insurance Directives deal with the applicable law to insurance contracts covering risks situated within the EU. They do not deal with the applicable law to reinsurance contracts and insurance contracts covering risks situated outside the EU. This should be ascertained by reference to the choice of laws provisions in the 1980 Rome Convention on the law applicable to contractual obligations. Detailed discussion of these rules is also provided, and proposals for reform suggested.

Download or read book Japanese and European Private International Law in Comparative Perspective written by Jürgen Basedow and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2008 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of national codification is advancing on a global scale in conflict of laws. A large number of legislative projects dealing with codifying and modernizing private international law, both on the national and the supranational level, have been launched in the past few years. Among such recent initiatives, the advances taken by the European and the Japanese legislators are particularly reflecting these developments. On January 1, 2007, the new Japanese 'Act on General Rules for Application of Laws' entered into force replacing the outdated conflict of laws statute of 1898. This major reform finds its parallels in the current efforts of the European Union to create a modern private international law regime for its member states.This volume presents the first comprehensive analysis of the new Japanese private international law available in any western language and contrasts it with corresponding European developments. Most of the contributors from Japan are scholars who were actively involved in and responsible for preparing the new Act. All of them are renowned experts in the field of private international law. Leading European experts in the conflict of laws supplement the Japanese analyses with comparative contributions reflecting the pertinent discussion of parallel endeavours in the EU. To guarantee better understanding, English translations of both the present and the former Japanese statutes have been added.

Download or read book Private International Law Aspects of Corporate Social Responsibility written by Catherine Kessedjian and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-03-06 with total page 697 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses one of the core challenges in the corporate social responsibility (or business and human rights) debate: how to ensure adequate access to remedy for victims of corporate abuses that infringe upon their human rights. However, ensuring access to remedy depends on a series of normative and judicial elements that become highly complex when disputes are transnational. In such cases, courts need to consider and apply different laws that relate to company governance, to determine the competent forum, to define which bodies of law to apply, and to ensure the adequate execution of judgments. The book also discusses how alternative methods of dispute settlement can relate to this topic, and the important role that private international law plays in access to remedy for corporate-related human rights abuses. This collection comprises 20 national reports from jurisdictions in Europe, North America, Latin America and Asia, addressing the private international law aspects of corporate social responsibility. They provide an overview of the legal differences between geographical areas, and offer numerous examples of how states and their courts have resolved disputes involving private international law elements. The book draws two preliminary conclusions: that there is a need for a better understanding of the role that private international law plays in cases involving transnational elements, in order to better design transnational solutions to the issues posed by economic globalisation; and that the treaty negotiations on business and human rights in the United Nations could offer a forum to clarify and unify several of the elements that underpin transnational disputes involving corporate human rights abuses, which could also help to identify and bridge the existing gaps that limit effective access to remedy. Adopting a comparative approach, this book appeals to academics, lawyers, judges and legislators concerned with the issue of access to remedy and reparation for corporate abuses under the prism of private international law.
