Description
International private law is a subject of increasing prominence. The nature and content of Scots conflict rules have undergone many changes in the seven years since publication of the first edition of Crawford's International Private Law in Scotland. Moreover, innovations in domestic Scots law have demanded the creation of corresponding conflict rules.
This new edition of International Private Law in Scotland, like the first, is notable for its comprehensive coverage, and full analysis, of topics. It provides a thorough account of all branches of Scots private law in their conflict of laws dimension.
