Faculty of Law - Papers (Archive)
A significant development was made recently to the range of corporate forms available to businesses operating in the European Union (EU). A company's incorporation, regulation and dissolution had hitherto been the sole domain of the EU's member states.

A Common Private Law For Europe, Alan Watson
A Common Private Law For Europe, Alan Watson
Scholarly Works
A satisfactory private law for Europe is not primarily to be sought for in the most common solutions, themselves the result of borrowing.

This means that a common law for Europe requires the acceptance of a uniform system of adjudicating differences within a standard framework of the necessary sources of law. Authority …
