This book provides theoretical and practical insights into emerging problems concerning multistate torts in private international law. Prominent authors analyse the issue of multistate torts in the context of the core of the European legal system and its classic coordination tools.The book highlights how cross-border torts can cause difficulties of localisation, including the complexities associated with the involvement of a high number of national courts with full or partial jurisdiction. It examines how this can lead to simultaneously pending proceedings, conflicting judgments and a multiplicity of applicable laws for the same claim. Chapters evaluate the main areas in which tort cases can arise, including cases of online defamation with a focus on Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation (SLAPP), the violation of competition law, climate change litigation, AI-related harm and product liability and succession matters. The book will also address the problem of inconsistent judgments that limit the circulation of enforcement proceedings in human rights cases. Multistate Torts in European Private International Law is an essential reference for students and scholars of private international law and comparative law. With an in-depth analysis of contemporary issues, it is also relevant to legal practitioners facing related cases.
