THE CONVENTION FOR CHOOSING THE APPLICABLE LAW – A CONSTRUCTION SPECIFIC FOR THE RELATIONSHIPS OF PRIVATE LAW WITH FOREIGN ELEMENT
Keywords:
the conflicts of laws right, lex causae, subjective determination, the convention for choosing the applicable lawAbstract
The legal relationships with foreign element generate the need to designate the law applicable in the conflict of laws. The national conflictual right and the European regulations govern the two complementary mechanisms for determining the law of the cause. Choosing the law by the parties gives expression to the subjective determination that, for some matters, is the rule, and for others, is the subsidiary solution. The recourse to the localization criteria of the applicable law signifies the objective determination of the law and contains variants that always lead to the identification of the lex causae. The method of concretizing the will of the parties is the choice convention of the applicable law, a concept specific to the private international law. The substantive requirements, the form requirements and the possibility of changing the chosen law are aspects expressly regulated by the national law and by the European norms.References
