Magnus/Mankowski, European Commentaries on Private International Law
Die neue Brüssel IIb-Verordnung (Englisch: Brussels IIter Regulation) gilt seit 1.8.2022. Sie ist der bisherigen Brüssel IIa-VO nachgefolgt und das wichtigste internationale Rechtsinstrument auf dem Gebiet des Familienrechts. Sie stärkt die Rechtssicherheit und
fördert die Effektivität der Verfahren. Positiv sind u.a. die Kodifikation der Anhörungspflicht des Kindes und die verbesserten Regelungen zur grenzüberschreitenden Zusammenarbeit. Dennoch lassen die Änderungen wichtige Fragen offen und gehen teilweise
auch nicht weit genug.
Darauf geht der englischsprachige Band Brussels IIter Regulation (2023) aus der von Prof. Ulrich Magnus und Prof. Peter Mankowski herausgegebenen Kommentarreihe „European Commentaries on Private International Law" aktuell ein. Die renommierten Autorinnen und Autoren aus vielen europäischen Ländern setzen sich kritisch mit den Neuregelungen auseinander. Zudem werden die neuesten Entwicklungen in der Rechtsprechung des EuGH sowie ausgewählte praxisrelevante nationale Entscheidungen fundiert analysiert. Die Brüssel IIb-VO wird erstmals ausführlich lösungsorientiert erläutert. Zu nicht geklärten Fragen erhalten Sie eigenständige und lösungsorientierte Stellungnahmen.
Für international tätige Anwälte mit Sitz in Deutschland bietet sich der Vorteil, den Kommentar ohne Übersetzungsaufwände zitieren zu können.
Hinweis: Das Werk erscheint auf Englisch.
The "European Commentaries on Private International Law", edited by Ulrich Magnus and Peter Mankowski , is truly European in nature and style. It offers most valuable guidance for lawyers, judges and academics throughout Europe. It is an indispensable working tool for everyone involved in this field of law.
The commentaries on Brussels IIter provide a topical, thorough and succinct in-depth analysis of the new regulations, which entered into force on 1 August 2022. The Brussels IIter Regulation like its immediate predecessor, the Brussels IIbis Regulation, is probably the most important act on international family law, certainly within Europe. The Recast primarily intends to improve the rules of Brussels IIbis, for instance on the child’s right to be heard, and specify them more precisely.
Its importance for cross-border family law can be easily ascertained by every practitioner even remotely concerned with transnational work in Europe. This commentary is the first full scale article-by-article commentary in English to address the Brussels IIter Regulation – which of course covers the jurisprudence of the European Court of Justice in a comprehensive manner.
The Brussels Ibis Regulation is to become by far the most prominent cornerstone of the European law of international civil procedure. Its imminence can be easily ascertained by every practitioner even remotely concerned with cross-border work in Europe. However arcane private international law in general might appear to practitioners – the Brussels I Regulation was a well-known and renowned instrument and the Brussels Ibis Regulation will become so as its proper heir. The so called Brussels system has proven its immeasurable and incomparable value for over forty years. The European Court of Justice and the national courts of the Member States have produced an abundance and a treasure of judgments interpreting the Brussels Convention and the Brussels I Regulation. The effort of completing a truly pan-European commentary mirrors the pan-European nature of its fascinating object. This commentary – which of course covers the jurisprudence of the ECJ in a comprehensive manner – assembles a team of very prominent and renowned authors from total Europe. The authors’ geographical provenience stretches from Denmark in the North to Italy in the South and from Portugal and the United Kingdom in the West to Austria in the East. Now the time is ripe to start such an enterprise.
This commentary is the first full scale article-by-article commentary in English to address the Brussels Ibis Regulation. It is truly European in nature and style. It provides thorough and succinct in-depth analysis of every single Article and offers most valuable guidance for lawyers, judges and academics throughout Europe. It is an indispensable working tool for all practitioners involved in this field of law.
One of the great steps towards a European Private International Law and for the facilitation of transborder trade is the Rome I Regulation which europeanised the applicable law for international contracts throughout the Union (though except Denmark). This Regulation has to be applied since the end of 2009. It has moderately reformed and replaced the former Rome Convention which had already proven its practical value for over two decades as many national decisions and also judgments of the European Court of Justice evidence. It is therefore high time for a truly pan-European Commentary on the Rome I Regulation which takes account of the European nature of this instrument. This is reflected by the team of contributors that originates from all over Europe assembling first experts in their countries. The editors are Ulrich Magnus and Peter Mankowski who have already edited the well-received pan-European Commentaries on the Brussels I Regulation and the Brussels IIbis Regulation.
The Commentary (in English) provides a thorough article-by-article analysis which intensely uses the rich case law and doctrine and suggests clear and practical solutions for disputed issues. It gives a comprehensive and actual account of the present state of the European international contract law. For international lawyers, practitioners as well as academics, it is an indispensable must.
Today car crashes, holiday accidents, damage through defective products and other tort situations, that occur in Europe, not infrequently involve a foreign element. It is then always of crucial importance which law applies. For the first time the EU has unified the private international law rules for extra-contractual relations in the Rome II Regulation. The instrument is in force in all EU Member States (with the only exception of Denmark) since 2009. Meanwhile the European Court of Justice and national courts have rendered a considerable number of decisions concerning central provisions of the Regulation. The time is therefore ripe for a truly pan-European Commentary on the Rome II Regulation which can give guidance in its interpretation. The Commentary takes full account of the European nature of this instrument. This is also reflected by the team of contributors that originates from all over Europe assembling first experts in their countries.
As the other works of the European Commentaries on Private International Law series this book provides a thorough article-by-article analysis which intensely uses the case law and doctrine and suggests clear and practical solutions for disputed issues. The editors are Ulrich Magnus and Peter Mankowski who have already edited pan-European Commentaries on the Brussel I Regulation, the Brussels Ibis Regulation, the Rome I Regulation and the Brussels IIbis Regulation.
