Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive survey of the work of this most influential Florentine artist and teacher Andrea del Verrocchio (c. 1435–1488) was one of the most versatile and inventive artists of the Italian Renaissance. He created art across media, from his spectacular sculptures and paintings to his work in goldsmithing, architecture, and engineering. His expressive, confident drawings provide a key point of contact between sculpture and painting. He led a vibrant workshop where he taught young artists who later became some of the greatest painters of the period, including Leonardo da Vinci, Sandro Botticelli, Lorenzo di Credi, and Domenico Ghirlandaio. This beautifully illustrated book presents a comprehensive survey of Verrocchio's art, spanning his entire career and featuring some fifty sculptures, paintings, and drawings, in addition to works he created with his students. Through incisive scholarly essays, in-depth catalog entries, and breathtaking illustrations, this volume draws on the latest research in art history to show why Verrocchio was one of the most innovative and influential of all Florentine artists. Published in association with the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC

Book Rethinking International Commercial Arbitration

Download or read book Rethinking International Commercial Arbitration written by Gilles Cuniberti and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2017-05-26 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arbitration is the normal and preferred mode for resolving international commercial disputes. It presents an essential advantage over national courts by offering neutrality of adjudication, but is currently only available where both parties have consented to it. This innovative book proposes a fundamental rethink of this assumption and argues that arbitration should become the default mode of resolution in international commercial disputes.

Book Cross Border Litigation in Europe

Download or read book Cross Border Litigation in Europe written by Paul Beaumont and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-11-16 with total page 1076 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This substantial and original book examines how the EU Private International Law (PIL) framework is functioning and considers its impact on the administration of justice in cross-border cases within the EU. It grew out of a major project (ie EUPILLAR: European Union Private International Law: Legal Application in Reality) financially supported by the EU Civil Justice Programme. The research was led by the Centre for Private International Law at the University of Aberdeen and involved partners from the Universities of Freiburg, Antwerp, Wroclaw, Leeds, Milan and Madrid (Complutense). The contributors address the specific features of cross-border disputes in the EU by undertaking a comprehensive analysis of the Court of Justice of the EU (CJEU) and national case law on the Brussels I, Rome I and II, Brussels IIa and Maintenance Regulations. Part I discusses the development of the EU PIL framework. Part II contains the national reports from 26 EU Member States. Parts III (civil and commercial) and IV (family law) contain the CJEU case law analysis and several cross-cutting chapters. Part V briefly sets the agenda for an institutional reform which is necessary to improve the effectiveness of the EU PIL regime. This comprehensive research project book will be of interest to researchers, students, legal practitioners, judges and policy-makers who work, or are interested, in the field of private international law.

Book Accountability in Extraterritoriality

Download or read book Accountability in Extraterritoriality written by Danielle Ireland-Piper and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2017-02-24 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nation states are increasingly asserting jurisdiction over criminal offenses that occur extraterritorially. In some instances, this can cause political tension and legal uncertainty, as the principles of jurisdiction under international law do not adequately resolve competing claims. In that context, this book considers principles of jurisdiction and mechanisms by which to achieve jurisdictional restraint under international law, including the possibilities presented by the abuse of rights doctrine.

Book Policy and Pragmatism in the Conflict of Laws

Download or read book Policy and Pragmatism in the Conflict of Laws written by Michael J. Whincop and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2001. After languishing for decades in the domains of rigid doctrinalism and confusing theory, the conflict of laws is increasingly being recognized as an important area of law to a global community. To demonstrate its importance, Michael Whincop and Mary Keyes transcend the divide between the English pragmatic tradition and the circularity of American policy-based theory. They argue that the law governing multistage conflicts can minimize the social costs of litigation, increase the extent of co-ordination, facilitate private ordering and limit regulatory monopolies and cross-border spillovers. Pragmatic in outlook and economic in methodology, they pursue these themes across a broad range of doctrinal issues and offer valuable links to parallel analyses in domestic contexts.

Book Private International Law

  • Author : Sai Ramani Garimella
  • Publisher : Springer
  • Release : 2017-01-19
  • ISBN : 9811034583
  • Pages : 457 pages

Download or read book Private International Law written by Sai Ramani Garimella and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-01-19 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows how, with the increasing interaction between jurisdictions spearheaded by globalization, it is gradually becoming impossible to confine transactions to a single jurisdiction. Presented in the form of a compendium of essays by eminent academics and practitioners in the field, it provides a detailed overview of private, international law practice in South Asian nations, addressing contemporary discourse within this knowledge domain. Conflict of laws/private international law arises from the universal acknowledgment that it is difficult to govern human transactions solely by the local law. The research presented addresses the three major threads of private international law – jurisdiction, choice of law and enforcement – within each of the South Asian countries in the areas of family law and commercial law. The research in family law domain includes traditional areas such as marriage, divorce and maintenance, as well as some of the contemporary concerns in this region – inter-country child retrieval, surrogacy, and the country statement on accession to the Hague Conventions related to this domain. In commercial law the research explores the concerns raised with regard to choice of law issues in transnational contracts, and also enforcement of foreign judgment/arbitral awards in the nations of this region.

Book Compendium of International Commercial Arbitration Forms

Download or read book Compendium of International Commercial Arbitration Forms written by Sigvard Jarvin and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2017-06-01 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International arbitration of business disputes continues to rise dramatically. New people entering the international arbitration community on all continents require a systematic guide to avoid a mere trial-and-error approach. This book, first of its kind, with numerous practical examples of the drafting of documents for each step of an international arbitration proceeding, under different arbitration rules and in different countries, allows actual ready-to-adapt forms to be located quickly for any issue likely to arise and clearly illustrates the different drafting styles used in practice. In one volume, in a single place, scores of documents are provided, all originating from real cases. A brief sample includes inter aliathe following: • request for arbitration; • answer/counterclaim; • claimant’s reply to counterclaim; • terms of reference; • rules of procedure; • timetable for submissions; • procedural orders; • written pleadings/statement of claim/defence; • witness statements/depositions/affidavits; • requests/orders for the production of documents/discovery; • requests/orders on interim measures/security for costs; • hearings; • opening statement/closing statement; • submissions on costs; • awards/interim/partial/final/by consent; and • requests/decisions on correction and interpretation of awards. Explanatory comments on more complex forms help to raise the readers’ awareness on a specific issue or discussion. Emphasis throughout is on procedural aspects. No other book makes it so easy to find all the information necessary to prepare a case or take a decision in the context of international commercial arbitration. These forms will be of immeasurable value to corporate counsel, management in instructing outside counsel, practitioners dealing with international arbitration, lawyers, arbitrators, members’ organizations in industry and commerce, arbitration centres (especially newer ones in emerging markets), academic libraries and bar associations.

  • Release : 2021
  • ISBN : 9789004503908
  • Pages : 504 pages

Download or read book Private International Law written by Symeon C. Symeonides and published by Hague Academy of International. This book was released on 2021 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Following a brief overview of the history of private international law (PIL) and a longer discussion of the nineteenth century (the first golden age of PIL), this volume offers a detailed and insightful review of the last fifty-year period in the international development of PIL (1970-2020), which is the book's main focus. At least in terms of legislative activity, this period may well be the new golden age of PIL, during which we have witnessed the enactment of 101 national or subnational PIL codifications or recodifications, and almost as many international or regional conventions and EU Regulations. These codifications and conventions provide a reliable gauge for assessing the progress of the discipline; they also form the basis for the comparative observations of this book. The first version of this text was published in the Collected Courses of the Hague Academy of International Law (the 2016 General Course on Private International Law or Conflicts Law). The current volume is an expanded, revised edition of that original text, offering In addition to general updating, two new chapters on party autonomy and on the challenges of the internet"--

Book International Arbitration and Private International Law

Download or read book International Arbitration and Private International Law written by George A. Bermann and published by Pocket Books of the Hague Acad. This book was released on 2017 with total page 644 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No field of legal scholarship or practice operates in the world of private international law as continuously and pervasively as does international arbitration, commercial and investment alike. Arbitration's dependence on private international law manifests itself throughout the life-cycle of arbitration, from the crafting of an enforceable arbitration agreement, through the entire arbitral process, to the time an award comes before a national court for annulment or for recognition and enforcement. Thus international arbitration provides both arbitral tribunals and courts with constant challenges. Courts may come to the task already equipped with longstanding private international law assumptions, but international arbitrators must largely find their own way through the private international law thicket. Arbitrators and courts take guidance in their private international law inquiries from multiple sources: party agreement, institutional rules, treaties, the national law of competing jurisdictions and an abundance of "soft law," some of which may even be regarded as expressing an international standard. In a world of this sort, private international law resourcefulness is fundamental.

Book excerpt: •Chapter 6, concerning the impact of the Constitution, has been streamlined to enhance “teachability.” The 2016 opinion in franchise tax Board versus Hyatt is now included as a principal case. •Chapters 7 and 8 present the central themes of choice of law.

This revision is designed to give students -- most of whom have little or no familiarity with choice of law doctrine -- a b.
