    Private international law in a global world:a revival of methodologies and research methods

    Full text link
    Until recently, discussions on methodology in private international law were confined to the boundaries of traditional, doctrinal legal research. The focus haslong been on the analysis of a legal system and its rules dealing with the existence of other legal systems. Being intertwined with comparative law, the study of private international law has a long tradition of applying comparative methods, and has been furthered by comparative law. Different debates, however, started to unravel or, at least, become more apparent. Along with the development of the role of private law in society, normative and behavioural research has become increasingly important. This has also triggered a more interdisciplinary approach to private international law, including empirical methods and economic analyses. Private international law has broadened its horizons to address societal, financial, technological, and climate problems. This chapter revisits the traditional public/private divide in private international law, anlyses the development of inter- an multidisciplinary approaches and how the future of private international law is shaped through legal education and methodology. <br/

    Procedure matters: construction and deconstructivism in European civil procedure

    No full text
    On 20 January 2012, Xandra Kramer was installed as holder of the Chair of European Civil Procedure at the Erasmus School of Law, Erasmus University Rotterdam. She specialises in private international law and civil procedure, and takes an interest in empirical legal research. In 2012, she joined the Erasmus School of Law interdisciplinary research programme ‘Behavioural Approaches to Contract and Tort’. In her inaugural lecture she stresses the importance of effective procedural law rules to enforce rights and act as the guarantor of fundamental rights. The enforcement of cross border rights is complicated by the huge differences in civil procedure as well as legal and practical obstacles. These complications jeopardise the right of access to justice and fair trial, and have as a result triggered the harmonisation of civil procedure. She illustrates that the gradual harmonisation of civil procedure within the EU is largely ad hoc and lacks both a vision and an architectural plan. The ‘deconstructivism’ in European civil procedure is a potential source of injustice and may endanger rather than improve access to justice. This necessitates a fundamental debate on the foundations and future architecture of European civil procedure in which common denominators should be access to justice, securing quality of justice, and best practices based on empirical evidence. She urges academics to be at the forefront in creating a blueprint for the future of European civil procedure
