Scottish Land Law: Volume 1

The 3rd edition of Professor Anton's standard text on the Scottish rules of private international law has been completely revised by Professors Beaumont and McEleavy. The subject area has been comprehensively reshaped in recent years due to the process of Europeanisation. The Brussels I, Brussels IIa, Rome I, Rome II and Maintenance Regulations, as well as associated case law, are considered in detail with regard paid to their particular impact on Scots law. The recent work of the Hague Conference on Private International Law is equally evaluated, most notably the Conventions on Maintenance, Choice of Court, Protection of Adults, Protection of Children and Inter-country Adoption. In analysing European and global instruments the authors have drawn on their experience in participating in the negotiation processes in Brussels as well as from their work for the Hague Conference.
