This Conflicts casebook is unique because it addresses conflict issues arising in the international arena in addition to domestic conflict of laws issues. This coverage reflects the ever-increasing level of transnational trade and travel. To make the subject more engaging, the book reintroduces conflict of laws that have largely disappeared from the wholly domestic scene, such as commercial law. Nevertheless, for professors who do not wish to cover comparative and international aspects of conflicts, these materials are placed at the end of the relevant chapters so that they may be omitted without interrupting the flow of the book. This Second Edition also reflects the latest domestic and international developments in conflicts involving family law issues.

As people, business, and information cross borders, so too do legal disputes. Globalisation means that courts need to apply principles of private international law with increasing frequency. Thus, as the Law Society of New South Wales recognised in its 2017 report The Future of Law and Innovation in the Profession, knowledge of private international law is increasingly important to legal practice. In particular, it is essential to the modern practice of commercial law. This book considers key issues at the intersection of commercial law and private international law. The authors include judges, academics and practising lawyers, from Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and the United Kingdom. They bring a common law perspective to contemporary problems concerning the key issues in private international law: jurisdiction, choice of law, and recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. The book also addresses issues of evidence and procedure in cross-border litigation, and the impact of recent developments at the Hague Conference on Private International Law, including the Convention on Choice of Court Agreements on common law principles of private international law.
