Hong Kong Private International Law

This book provides a clear and authoritative exposition of Hong Kong private international law on issues of jurisdiction, choice of law, recognition and enforcement, arbitration, and inter-regional and international harmonisation. It covers a wide range of areas of law including the law of obligations, the law of property, intellectual property law, family law, company law, insolvency law, bankruptcy law, competition law, criminal law, and admiralty law. It also contains detailed discussions of jurisdiction, arbitration, and dispute resolution clauses. The book focuses on the practical issues, but also considers theoretical insights and suggestions for law reform when appropriate. The emphasis is on the rapidly developing local jurisprudence over the recent years. Moreover, it systematically analyses the private international law issues arising out of cases between Hong Kong on the one hand and Mainland China, Taiwan, and Macao SAR on the other, with the enunciation of a set of Hong Kong private international law principles for inter-regional cases. This volume is a one-stop reference guide to Hong Kong private international law and will be indispensable to judges, practitioners and scholars in Hong Kong, the Greater China, Asia, and worldwide.>
