The Conflict of Laws provides a complete yet accessible survey of English private international law. It examines the jurisdiction of English courts (and whether their judgments are enforced and recognized overseas) and the effect of foreign judgments. It looks at the principles of choice of law for cases with an international element, for example contracts made or performed in other jurisdictions or with other parties, torts committed overseas or by foreign parties, international fraud, dealings with property overseas, and family and personal matters (including marriage, divorce, and financial support) across different jurisdictions. As the law becomes less 'English' and more 'European', realand difficult questions arise at the point where two sources of legislative authority, and two streams of judicial authority, come together. This fully updated second edition explores how these changes are altering the foundations ofthe subject.
