The book focuses on the practical issues, with an emphasis on the rapidly developing local jurisprudence over the recent years. It also considers theoretical insights and suggestions for law reform when appropriate. Moreover, it systematically analyses the private international law issues arising out of inter-regional cases between Hong Kong on the one hand and Mainland China, Taiwan, and Macao on the other.
The book will be indispensable to judges, practitioners, scholars, and students in Hong Kong, the Greater China, Asia, and worldwide.
Wilson Lui is Lecturer and Pre-Doctoral Fellow at the Faculty of Law of the University of Hong Kong. Anselmo Reyes is Guest Professor at the Law Faculty of Doshisha University in Kyoto, Japan, and an International Judge of the Singapore International Commercial Court.
