This book provides a substantial overview of the discipline of private international law viewed from a global perspective. The guide is divided into 4 key sections. Theory Institutional and Conceptual Framework Issues Civil and Commercial Law (apart from Family Law) Family Law Each chapter is written by a leading expert(s). The chapters address specific areas/aspects of private international law and consider the existing global solutions and the possibilities of improving/creating them. Where appropriate, the chapters are co-authored by experts from different legal perspectives in order to achieve as balanced a picture as possible. The range of contributions includes authors from Europe, North America, Latin America, Africa, Asia and Oceania. An essential resource for academics, practitioners and students alike.

To Paul Beaumont and Jayne Holliday, skillful editors of the volume, we owe, first of all, the approach of the work, which places side by side the treatment of a number of "general part" and horizontal issues with respect to the different areas of disputes characterized by elements of internationality… The result is a precise and accurate plan of action both at the "legislative" level and at the level of scientific reflection and the development of a practice, including jurisprudential practice, increasingly aligned with regulatory developments and the concrete needs of personal and economic relations of a transnational nature, so that the volume, published in 2022, goes far beyond its initial intentions, already representing an indispensable reference point in the essential bibliography of our subject. -- Francesca C. Villata * Rivista di diritto internazionale privato e processuale *
