Abstract

Globalisation commands shifts in the theoretical, doctrinal and methodological bases of choice of law. The challenges of globalisation also prompt active searches for a new conceptual structure and paradigm. New and emerging choice of law problems require a unified foundation based on true neutrality. This implies a re-alignment of theory, doctrine, premises, direction, goals and method. The choice of law reforms and revolutions of previous eras brought valuable insights, but the clues left in their wake are yet to be unravelled in the interest of steady progress.
