Overview

Volumes I, II, III and IV of this reference work were published in 1976, 1980, 1984 and 1994 respectively. The core of the books consists of court decisions involving the Hague Conventions in force in the field of private international law. This wealth of information has been made accessible by arranging the decisions per Convention and then per legal issue, thus clearly showing similarities and differences in the application of each Convention by a variety of countries and tribunals. Considering the increasing number of Conventions between a growing number of parties, this system is suited to illustrate problems of application. Volume five completes the jurisprudence of the series with cases covering the period from 1990 to 1995 as well as a number of cases of an earlier date which were only recently received. They originate from fourteen European countries, the USA, Canada, Argentina, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, the Dutch Antilles and Israel. Also included are a few decisions from the ICC and the European Court of Justice. A survey as per April 1994 of signatures, ratifications, reservations and other declarations relating to each Convention can be found in Volume IV, which volume also includes an overview of the vast literature the Conventions have given rise to throughout the world. The Permanent Bureau of the Hague Conference has cooperated in the realization of this series, which will prove to be useful for practising lawyers and legal scholars who have anything to do with the Hague Conference in any area of private international law or international procedural law.
