Jurisprudence without confines : private international law as global legal pluralism
Résumé
This article arises from Professor Muir Watt's keynote address to the CJICL annual
conference on 8th April 2016. In her article, she considers whether private international law
can offer specific insights into important issues that challenge contemporary legal theory.
Specifically, she analyses whether legal pluralism can encompass private international law to
craft a jurisprudence beyond borders. She argues that conflict of laws theory can contribute
principles, infuse hybrid normative interactions and ensure accountability in the relationship
between global law and global justice. [Editor's abstract]
