Course objectives
The public interest is an aspect that affects the legislative process in all areas of law. In private international law, aside from the rule-making process itself, the public interest is reflected both by several basic institutes of conflict-of-law area of private international law and within the process of recognition and enforcement of foreign judgment. It is an orde public, overriding mandatory rules or materialization of the conflict solution. Due to the broad scope of the issue, it is divided between two semmestr of studies. The aim of this course (first semmester) is to analyze the key parameters of ordre public, including manifestations and impacts on private relations with an international element. Ordre public will be analyzed by the perspective of the process of application of foreign law, ie at what moment and in what way these institutions can be used and also from the perspective of ground on which the recognition of foreign judgment can be refused.
Learning outcomes
Students will be able to characterize ordre public, explain and determine the reasons for using of it, the moment of its use within the process of application of foreign law and within the process of recognition and enforcement of foreign judgment.
