The European Private International Law of Obligations deals with conflict of laws as mediated by European rules and regulations. It provides unrivalled analysis of the Rome I and Rome II Regulations and their practical implications, helping practitioners interpret them since they came into force in 2009. It supplies expert commentary on the scope, principles and application of Rome I, governing the construction of contracts, and the rules governing non-contractual obligations under Rome II.
Between them the Rome Regulations comprise a common set of rules for the choice of law in international private law disputes, whether contractual or non-contractual. Practical knowledge of and guidance on the Regulations is essential for all practitioners involved in commercial transactions that involve an international element.
FEATURES:
This edition is the first since the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union. A new chapter has been included to deal specifically with the technicalities of how Rome I and Rome II Regulations apply in the UK following the end of the transition period. In addition, the title has been fully reviewed and updated to take account of new cases and legislative developments since the last edition was published in 2019.
