Rivista di diritto internazionale privato e processuale (RDIPP) No 1/2023: Abstracts
The first issue of 2023 of the Rivista di diritto internazionale privato e processuale (RDIPP, published by CEDAM) was just released. It features:
Francesco Salerno, (formerly) Professor at the University of Ferrara, L’impatto della procedura di interpretazione pregiudiziale sul diritto internazionale privato nazionale (The Impact of the Preliminary Rulings of the Court of Justice on National Private International Law; in Italian)
The European Court of Justice’s uniform interpretation of private international law concerns mainly – albeit not only – the EU Regulations adopted pursuant to Article 81 TFEU: in the context of this activity, the Court also takes into account the distinctive features of EU Member States. The increasing number of autonomous notions developed by the Court greatly enhanced the consistency and the effectiveness of the European rules. Against this background, the Italian judicial authorities implemented such a case-law even when it ran counter well-established domestic legal principles. Moreover, the European institutions rarely questioned the case-law of the Court of Justice, but when they did so, they adopted new rules of private international law in order to “correct” a well-settled jurisprudential trend of the Court.

It is the result of a project coordinated by Afonso Patrão (University of Coimbra, in Portugal), joining efforts with the Universities of Heidelberg (Germany), Turku (Finland), Genoa (Italy) and Valencia (Spain), which will be useful when a right in rem is invoked under the law applicable to succession, but the lex rei sitae does not know such right in rem. As Afonso Patrão explains “the app will then suggest an equivalent under the law of the latter Member State, taking into account the aims and the interests pursued by the specific right in rem and the effects attached to it”.
