Brussels I Regulation: Second Revised Edition (European Commentaries on Private International Law)

The Brussels I Regulation is by far the most prominent cornerstone of the European law of international civil procedure. Every practitioner in the international field has to work with it - and its importance is still growing. The first edition of this full scale article-by-article commentary found a very warm reception. This second revised edition brings the book up-to-date, incorporating a host of developments in the four years since its first appearance. The book combines in-depth analysis with a genuine and truly European perspective and covers the jurisprudence of the European Court of Justice and of the Member States. Additionally, it integrates thorough discussion of the pending proposal for a Brussels Ibis Regulation. This truly European commentary offers invaluable guidance for lawyers, judges, and academics.
