Three texts commemorate von Mehren himself his life, his importance for Harvard, and his role in the Joseph Story Fellowship, a program that allowed young German researchers to spend one year in Harvard. Ten contributions discuss the problems conflict of laws is facing in a globalized world. The first five of these contributions deal with current legal topics in international civil litigation and transatlantic judicial cooperation. These topics range from the design of judgments conventions in general to the recently adopted Hague Convention on Choice of Court Agreements and from current problems involving negative declaratory actions in international disputes to recent transatlantic developments relating to service of process and to collective proceedings. The last five contributions focus on choice of law in international and transatlantic relationships. They cover comparative and economic dimensions of party autonomy, reflect on current discussions in the choice of law relating to intellectual property rights, and engage in critical discussions about the applicable law in antitrust law itigation, international arbitration, and actions for punitive damages
