Samenvatting

This Commentary provides comprehensive analysis of the 2005 Hague Convention on Choice of Court Agreements that came into force in October 2015. Drawing on the contributors’ expertise from a range of legal traditions, including Commonwealth and US common law, as well as French and German civil law traditions, it presents an article-by-article examination of the Convention. Each provision is carefully examined using diverse perspectives to ensure an in-depth understanding of its history, context and meaning. The Commentary outlines past scholarly research and controversies arising from interpretation as well as indicating avenues for future study.

Key Features:
● Provides an international and comparative perspective on the interpretation of the Convention
● Includes expansive reference to case law and legal literature, in a variety of languages, from across the globe
● Analyses the ways in which the Convention is implemented in several jurisdictions
● Presents insights into the negotiation of the Convention and the Hague Conference process

This Commentary is a crucial reference tool for practitioners in international dispute resolution and private international law. It is also a vital resource for scholars and students specialising in international dispute resolution in Asia, Europe, and the Americas.
