Frank Bates Book Launch: 'Conflict of Laws as Taxonomy: A New Approach'

Wednesday, 19 August 2015

On Wednesday the 12th of August, Newcastle legal scholars and practitioners came together to launch the latest book by Emeritus Professor Frank Bates, the esteemed author of 9 books and over 300 articles and book chapters which have been published internationally.

Conflict of Laws as Taxonomy

The book was launched by Professor Michael Stuckey, Head of the School of Law, University of New England.

Conflict of Laws as Taxonomy: A New Approach offers a unique analytical and doctrinal approach to the conflict of laws. Its purpose is to review and assess the traditionally accepted methodology and taxonomy used in the resolution of cross-jurisdictional matters and to suggest alternative ways in which such matters may be classified, with resulting practical application to the conduct of cross-border disputes.
