Beskrivning
Relocation cases are disputes between separated parents which arise when one parent proposes to move to a new geographic location with their child and the other parent objects to the proposal. Relocation disputes are widely recognised as being amongst the most difficult cases facing family courts, and the law governing them is increasingly a cause for debate at both national and international levels. In Relocation Disputes: Law and Practice in England and New Zealand, Rob George looks at the different ways in which the legal systems of England and New Zealand currently deal with relocation cases. Drawing on case law, literature and the views of legal practitioners in the two jurisdictions, Relocation Disputes represents a major contribution to our understanding of the everyday practice of relocation cases. The empirical data reported in this book reveal the practical differences between the English and New Zealand approaches to relocation, along with a detailed analysis of the pros and cons of each system as seen by judges, lawyers and court experts who deal with these cases in practice. This analysis leads to detailed criticisms and lessons that can be learnt, together with practical suggestions about possible reforms of relocation law.

George’s analysis of relocation law in England and New Zealand will be of benefit to practitioners in both jurisdictions, as well as in countries with similar family law systems. His incorporation of interviews with 22 practitioners in each country highlights the fundamental divergences of informed opinion on this fraught issue, at a time when it has been estimated that in 2010 there were 215 million international migrants annually, with that number typically increasing by around 10% every five years. Relocation Disputes is tightly and readably constructed. It is well researched and thoughtfully argued. George’s modest proposals to find both a rapprochement between English and New Zealand law, and a middle road that fairly addresses the fundamental issues, deserve careful consideration. His research and data collection constitute a welcome and valuable contribution to scholarly analysis of issues in this fundamentally important area of family law. Relocation Disputes can be warmly recommended for all modern family law practitioners with an interest in the law, practice and policies relating to the post-separation life of families.
