This timely book examines the complex challenges arising in modern private international law (PIL). The book brings together leading practitioners and scholars to consider the future of this dynamic area of law.Covering key themes including digitalisation, European civil cooperation, the codification of PIL, and judicial cooperation, the book explores the many forces shaping PIL at a global, regional and domestic level. Authors examine the processes of both harmonisation and fragmentation of PIL, and highlight the continuing importance of territoriality. They focus on areas which have recently undergone transformation, such as family law, the law of succession, blockchain, smart contracts, and property law. Through showcasing the developments that PIL has already undergone and highlighting areas for further advancement, the book provides a well-rounded picture of the relevance and effectiveness of PIL in today’s world.Private International Law in an Era of Change is an essential resource for academics and practitioners of PIL, including those with an interest in arbitration and dispute resolution, family law and international commercial law.
