Il volume n. 375 del Recueil des cours de l’Académie de Droit International de la Haye, uscito a Novembre 2015, comprende, fra gli altri, uno scritto di Ted M. de Boer intitolato Choice of Law in Arbitration Proceedings.

[Dal sito dell’editore] – Contrary to national courts, arbitral tribunals are not bound to local rules of private international law: there is no lex fori determining the choice-of-law issues that may be raised in arbitration proceedings. Arbitrators are thus faced with the problem of choosing (a) the law governing disputes on the existence and validity of arbitration agreements, (b) the law governing the merits of the case, and (c) the law governing the proceedings as such. Most of these problems could be solved by an express choice of law by the parties. However, apart from the question of whether such a choice is valid and permissible and which law applies to that issue, the principle of party autonomy is of no avail in the absence of a (valid) agreement on the applicable law. In this course, various solutions to the choice-of-law problems that may arise in arbitration proceedings are discussed and evaluated.

Un requérant est en droit de se prétendre victime d’une violation de la Convention européenne des droits de l’homme, bien qu’il ne puisse pas alléguer avoir fait l’objet d’une mesure concrète de surveillance de ses conversations téléphoniques ; la simple existence de la législation incriminée constitue en soi une ingérence dans l’exercice par l’intéressé des droits découlant de l’article 8 de la Convention.

Regular readers of the blog will know I do not easily stray from the legal menu. When I do, it has to be for something extraordinary. Master in the kitchen is just that, for it takes away all excuses not to spend time with family and friends preparing and enjoying great food produce. (Instead of just food products). Plus the site’s photography offers a lot of eye candy.

To all readers, Merry Christmas or alternative seasons’s greetings.

Jana Felicia Dickler, Schiedsgerichtsbarkeit und Reform der EuGVVO – Standort Europa zwischen Stagnation und Fortschritt, Mohr Siebeck, 2015, ISBN 9783161539862, pp. 241, Euro 69.

[Dal sito dell’editore] Schiedsgerichtsbarkeit ist die wohl bekannteste und auch wirtschaftlich bedeutendste Möglichkeit außergerichtlicher Konfliktbewältigung. Trotzdem bestehen in weiten Teilen Überschneidungsbereiche zur staatlichen Gerichtsbarkeit. Um als Standort Europa auch in Zukunft wettbewerbsfähig zu sein, müssen aus gesetzgeberischer Perspektive für diesen Bereich der alternativen zivilrechtlichen Streitbeilegung adäquate normative Rahmenbedingungen geschaffen werden. Vor diesem Hintergrund beleuchtet Jana Dickler den über zehnjährigen Reformprozess, den das maßgebliche europäische Regelungsinstrument auf dem Gebiet zivilrechtlicher Verfahrenskoordinierung – die EuGVVO – durchlaufen hat, und bewertet das Ergebnis mit Blick auf die konfliktträchtigen Überschneidungsbereiche zwischen staatlicher und Schiedsgerichtsbarkeit um auf dieser Grundlage einen eigenen Lösungsvorschlag zu entwickeln.

Professor Gian Paolo Romano (University of Geneva) has just published a highly insightful paper entitled “Conflicts and Coordination of Family Statuses: Towards their Recognition within the EU?” The briefing note was prepared on request of the European Parliament as a contribution to a workshop on “Adoption: Cross-border legal issues” for JURI and PETI Committees, which took place on 1 December 2015. The paper focusses on, in the author’s words, “intra-EU conflicts of family statuses” that are bound to arise under the current legislative situation: Over the years, the European Union has adopted a wide set of Regulations that cover international jurisdiction, applicable law and recognition with regard to the legal effects flowing from a family status, while the creation or termination of family statuses are predominantly excluded from the Regulations’ scope. Thus, the question whether and on which grounds a family status awarded by one Member State is to be recognized in other Member States is still widely left to domestic PIL, often resulting in conflicts of inconsistent family statuses between Member States, which, at this stage, cannot be resolved in legal proceedings. After reflecting upon those conflicts being contrary to human rights as well as to the objectives and fundamental freedoms of the European Union and demonstrating their potential to frustrate the aims of European PIL instruments, the author discusses four possible legislative strategies for preventing conflicts of family statuses across the European Union or alleviating their adverse effects.

The compilation of briefing notes is available here (please see page 17 et seqq. for Professor Romano’s contribution).
