The Conflict of Laws by Adrian Briggs (9780199679270)

Description - The Conflict of Laws by Adrian Briggs

Adrian Briggs' invaluable introduction to the study of the conflict of laws provides a survey and analysis of the rules of private international law as they apply in England in 2013. The volume covers general principles, jurisdiction, and the effect of foreign judgments; choice of law for contractual and non-contractual obligations, the private international law of property, of persons, and of corporations. It does so in a manner which seeks to explain and illuminate the principles which underpin the subject in a clear and coherant fashion, as the wealth of literature, case law, and legislation often obscures the architecture of the subject and unnecessarily complicates study.This new edition organizes its material in the light of European legislation on private international law, reflecting the shift towards understanding private international law as European law with a common law background instead of common law with European legislative influences.
