The private international law of the Member States is increasingly regulated by European law, making private international law ever less 'national' and ever more EU based. Consequentially EU law in this area has penetrated national law to a very high degree, making it an essential area of study and an area of increasing importance to practising lawyers. This book provides a thorough overview of core European private international law, including the Brussels I, Rome I and Rome II Regulations (jurisdiction, applicable law for contracts and tort), while additional chapters deal with the recently adopted Succession Regulation, private international law and insolvency, freedom of establishment, and the impact of PIL on corporate social responsibility.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom the reviews of the first edition\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'As a result of his broad knowledge on the subject and rich professional experience, Mr van Calster provides great insight into current issues within international law.
