Schultz on Postulates of Justice in Transnational Law and Private International Law Reasoning

Thomas Schultz (Kings College London) has posted Postulates of Justice in Transnational Law and Private International Law Reasoning. A Few Simple Points (Postulats De Justice En Droit Transnational Et Raisonnements De Droit International Privé. Premier Balisage D’Un Champ D’Études) on SSRN.

Transnational private rules may, in certain situations, be the best choice for these objectives.
