The Elgar Companion to the Hague Conference on Private International Law

Résumé

The publication presented here gathers some 35 contributions, drafted by even more authors, who are practitioners and/or academics and hold positions in various places in the world, including Mexico, Singapore, Italy, France, Belgium, Australia, India, Russia, Japan or Canada. As the title shows, the main objective of this undertaking is to take stock of the evolutions, achievements, and challenges of the Hague Conference on Private International Law (HCCH). In this respect, the book is the first of its kind as it describes and assesses the 125 years of work of the HCCH. In doing so, it also performs two other noteworthy functions. On the one hand, it constitutes a useful legal resource for practitioners and students, as several contributions establish the state of the art about a given, sometimes new, topic of private international law (see e.g., ch. 30 on commercial arbitration), within ten to fifteen pages. On the other hand, this publication identifies the main issues that require the attention of the HCCH, and, in doing that, more generally points out the topics where positive private international law seems absent or out-of-date (see e.g., ch. 33 on the notion of network).
