This book analyses, comments and further develops on the most important instrument of the Hague Conference on Private International Law (HCCH): the HCCH 2019 Judgments Convention. The HCCH Convention, the product of decades of work, will have a transformative effect on global judicial cooperation in civil matters. This book explores its ‘mechanics’, i.e. the legal cornerstones of the new Convention (Part I), its prospects in leading regions of the world (Part II), and offers an overview and comment on its outlook (Part III). Drawing on contributions from world-leading experts, this magisterial and ambitious work will become the reference work for law-makers, judges, lawyers and scholars in the field of private international law.

This volume contains the contributions delivered at CEFL's fifth international conference. It focuses on comparative and international family law in Europe in their respective cultural contexts. The interventions address the new Principles of European Family Law regarding Property Relations between Spouses, the proposed EU private international law regulations for spouses and registered partners for international couples and their property relations, the laws of a growing number of countries which legislate non-formalized relationships and the new developments regarding social, biological and legal parentage.

Kinder werden immer öfter mithilfe künstlicher Befruchtung gezeugt. Das Recht muss deshalb bestimmen, wer ihre Eltern sind. Lange richtete sich die Elternschaft nach der genetischen Abstammung. Was aber ist das maßgebliche Prinzip für die rechtliche Zuordnung eines Kindes, das mithilfe künstlicher Fortpflanzung gezeugt wurde? Dieser Frage sowie der, wer Eltern dieser Kinder sein sollten, ging der dem Werk zugrunde liegende Vortrag nach.
