Download book The Rome Regulations : Commentary EC Regs on Conflict Laws in DJV
9789041147547 English 9041147543 A German-style, English-language commentary on the Rome Regulations, providing judges, lawyers, and practitioners throughout Europe and beyond with state-of-the-art and timely Article-by-Article commentaries on the EU rules of the conflict of laws. Authored by a team of leading German private international law scholars, each commentary is directed towards the black-letter-law as represented by the jurisprudence of the Court of Justice of the EU and of Member State courts as well as by the prevailing opinion among scholars. Systematic, comprehensive, and profound as its predecessor, the updated second edition takes account of recent legal developments and jurisprudence in the field of contractual (Rome I) and non-contractual (Rome II) obligations. Furthermore, the book now includes commentaries on the so-called Rome III Regulation regarding divorce and legal separation, making it an indispensable guide to the European rules of the conflict of laws.The editor Gralf-Peter Calliess holds the chair for Private Law, Private International Law, International Business Law and Legal Theory at the faculty of Law of the University of Bremen., With the so-called Rome I and II Regulations the Member States of the European Union are bound to a common set of rules for the choice of law in international private law disputes. They apply to both contractual and non-contractual disputes, their reach even extends to the application of non-Member State law. This poses great challenges to Courts and practitioners in every EU Member State, as there is only little case-law and doctrinal literature on the new rules, the uniform application of which will be overseen by the European Court of Justice. The Commentary answers to these challenges. It is an indispensable companion for both academics and legal professionals seeking their way through the Regulations. Renowned conflict of laws scholars comment every provision of the Regulations in a systematic, thorough and comprehensive manner, making them accessible to a broad international legal audience. Mirroring the German tradition of scholarly commentaries on Parliamentary Acts, the authors are selected from the distinguished group of relatively young German private international law scholars, whose exceptionally high qualifications are represented by their passing through the German "Habilitation"-system (second book requirement) as well as their proven ability to publish in the English language. The editor Gralf-Peter Calliess holds the chair for Private Law, Private International Law, International Business Law and Legal Theory at the faculty of Law of the University of Bremen.
