OUR PROGRAM

The vast majority of international contracts raise issues of private international law. In the event of a dispute between two parties, which courts in the world are likely, if seized of the dispute, to declare themselves internationally competent? Which law would they apply? If one party obtains a judgment in its favour in one State, will it be able to have that judgment recognised and enforced in another State?

The private international law of a State consists of two sets of rules. In the first set, the State requires, accepts or provides for its private law norms to be given effect in relation to those of other States in the world and for its jurisdictional and non-jurisdictional authorities to be seized in relation to those of other States in the world. By a second set of rules, this State obliges itself to, or reserves the possibility of, giving private law effect to the norms of other States of the world.
