International Family Law (International Law series, 13)

This collection canvasses the growing literature on international family law, extending from the traditional private law governing cross-border families, to multi-lateral treaties on subjects such as child abduction and intercountry adoption, to the framework of international human rights law that shapes domestic and international family law systems. Volume I explores the internationalization of family law and considers adult relationships, whilst Volume II examines parent-child relationships. All of the articles are tied together in the Editor's introductory essay, which provides a useful and insightful overview.

Edited by a leading authority in the field, this collection will prove to be an invaluable and essential research tool for all international family law academics, researchers and practitioners.

60 articles, dating from 1963 to 2014
