There is a key value embedded in the EU regime: legal certainty, as explained by Marta Requejo Isidro in this final chapter of Part I. Requejo Isidro examines the impoverishment that Brexit represents in the specific context of private international law and transnational litigation, in both commercial and family law, as this exit means a significant loss in terms of legal certainty for all parties involved. Admittedly, the hurdles of uncertainty regarding jurisdiction, or the disadvantages of losing a swift system for passporting UK judgments into Europe will not affect all stakeholders equally: some groups of the population, such as consumers, employees, small businesses, children or maintenance creditors, are likely to endure worse experiences than major litigants in complex corporate litigation. This chapter analyses the complexities of Brexit in this field as well as the contributions of English and Scottish legal systems to the development of EU private international law from a continental European perspective. It concludes that Brexit means overall impoverishment. EU law is as it is – not civil law, not common law, not even mixed, but European – thanks to many influences, including the very important British common law perspective.

This chapter reflects on Uruguayan perspectives on the Hague Principles. In Uruguay, international commercial contracts are regulated by the following conventions: the Montevideo Treaty on International Civil Law of 1889; the Montevideo Treaty on International Civil Law of 1940; the Additional Protocol to the Montevideo Treaty on International Civil Law of 1940; and the Buenos Aires Protocol on International Jurisdiction in Contractual Matters. They are also regulated under the domestic private international law rules contained within the Appendix of the Civil Code of Uruguay. The Appendix of the Civil Code, including rules regulating contract, is under revision; a Draft General Act on Private International Law is in Parliament under consideration. It seems unlikely that the Hague Principles will play any role regarding this Draft Act at present; however, the draft has yet to be approved mainly due to disagreement on the role of party autonomy. If the Draft Act is approved and entered into force, the Hague Principles may become useful in Uruguayan law.

Leaving media interest aside, the case is of considerable importance from a legal point of view, due to the presence of international elements that link the situation with two legal systems, Spanish and Italian. It is therefore appropriate to approach the main questions of the con­troversy from an international-privatist approach, as well as from the point of view of comparative law.Keywords: child abduction, affidamento, collocazione, visiting rights, right to support, Compara­tive law.

This chapter discusses Argentine perspectives on the Hague Principles. As regards conventional private international Law, Argentina has ratified the Montevideo Treaties on International Civil Law of 1889 and 1940, which regulate the law applicable to international contracts in Articles 32–39 and 36–42, respectively. Concerning domestic private international Law, its provisions are envisaged in the Argentine Civil and Commercial Code and special statutes. On 7 October 2014, Argentina enacted a new Civil and Commercial Code (CCyCN, for its Spanish acronym), which came into force on 1 August 2015. The regulatory sources consulted for the drafting of the New Code did not include the Hague Principles. Nevertheless, were the CCyCN to be amended in the future, nothing would prevent the Hague Principles from being considered at the time of modifying rules on the law applicable to international contracts. Within the judicial framework, Argentine courts may use the Hague Principles in order to interpret or supplement rules of law on the law applicable to international contracts.
