This book is a one-stop reference guide to Hong Kong private international law. It provides a clear and authoritative exposition on issues of jurisdiction, choice of law, recognition and enforcement, arbitration, and inter-regional and international harmonisation in Hong Kong private international law. It covers a wide range of areas of law and their relationships with questions of private international law, including the law of obligations, the law of property, intellectual property law, family law, company law, insolvency law, bankruptcy law, competition law, and admiralty law. It also contains a detailed discussion of jurisdiction, arbitration, dispute resolution, and choice of law clauses.

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.
