Résumé
This book undertakes a systematic analysis of the 2019 Hague Judgments
Convention, the 2005 Hague Choice of Court Convention 2005, and the 2017
Commonwealth Model Law on recognition and Enforcement of Foreign
Judgments from a pragmatic perspective.
The book builds on the
concept of pragmatism in private international law within the context of
recognition and enforcement of judgments. It demonstrates the practical
application of legal pragmatism by setting up a toolbox (pragmatic
goals and methods) that will assist courts and policymakers in
developing an effective and efficient judgments' enforcement scheme at
national, bilateral and multilateral levels.
Practitioners,
national courts, policymakers, academics, students and litigants will
benefit from the book's comparative approach using case law from the
United Kingdom and other leading Commonwealth States, the United States,
and the Court of Justice of the European Union. The book also provides
interesting findings from the empirical research on the refusal of
recognition and enforcement in the UK and the Commonwealth statutory
registration schemes respectively.
