An introduction to the rules of private international law belonging to the legal system of the European Union

Concise Introduction to EU Private International Law (2012)

This concise book is mainly intended to be used as an introduction to the rules of private international law belonging to the legal system of the European Union. It provides legal practitioners with an overview of the highly complex field of private international law and can serve as an introductory textbook in elective undergraduate courses and master programs offered today by many law schools both to their own students and to exchange students from other countries. This book is also useful as a spring-board towards more profound studies of statutory texts, case law and legal literature.

Review of first edition:

'For anyone interested in learning about the major sources of PIL in the EU, this book provides a useful overview, taking a very methodical, step-by-step look at each of the major instruments... the book is a highly useful breakdown of the relevant instruments in EU Private International Law.... It is a great first attempt by Bogdan to piece together the most relevant legislation on the subject, and, to the reviewer’s knowledge, the book is the only condensed textbook on EU PIL in existence.' Jeffrey Goetz in International Law and Politics [Vol. 40:307, 2007]
