Preface
In this book interaction between the rights guaranteed in the European Convention
on Human Rights (ECHR) and private international law has been analysed by
examining the case law of the European Court of Human Rights (the Court) in
Strasbourg and selected national courts. In doing so the book has focused on the
impact of the ECHR on all three of the main questions of private international law:
jurisdiction, the applicable law and the recognition and enforcement of foreign
judgments. First, a concise introduction to both private international law and the
ECHR has been provided. Next, an important preliminary question has been
answered: what is the meaning of Article 1 ECHR for private international law?
Thereafter, the impact of the ECHR on the three main issues of private interna-
tional law has been examined in depth. It has been demonstrated in this book that
the impact of the ECHR on private international law is indeed considerable, and
that its impact in some areas of private international law is still somewhat
underestimated.
This book is based on the research which I mostly carried out at Amsterdam
University’s Amsterdam Center for International Law (ACIL) during the period
2008–2013. A small part of the research was carried out at the Swiss Institute for
Comparative Law. I would like to thank the staff of the Institute for their
hospitality.
This research was made possible by the Netherlands Organization for Scientific
Research (NWO). It was part of the VICI project on ‘The emerging international
constitutional order—the implications of hierarchy in international law for
coherence and legitimacy of international decision making.’ I am grateful to Erika
de Wet for giving me the opportunity to be a part of this research project, which
allowed me to combine two of my favourite subjects of law.
An older—and abbreviated—version of chapter 4 of this book is based on a
presentation delivered at the Colloquium ‘The Impact of the European Convention
on Human Rights on Private International Law’, organized by the University of
Amsterdam on 12 November 2010. This presentation was first published in the
journal Nederlands Internationaal Privaatrecht (NIPR). My thanks are extended to
all the participants at the conference, who provided me with useful commentary.
v
vi Preface
Many other people have contributed—either directly or indirectly—to this
book. I would like to thank, first of all, Jannet Pontier, and Marieke Oderkerk, who
helped to guide my research together with Erika de Wet. I would also like to thank
Prof. Gerards, Prof. Van Hoek, Prof. Kinsch, Dr. Mak, and Prof. Nollkaemper for
their comments on an earlier version of the manuscript.
This book has certainly also benefited from my many discussions on interna-
tional law—and other miscellaneous subjects—with my former colleagues at the
University of Amsterdam, and particularly my colleagues at the Amsterdam
Center for International Law. My thanks go out to all of them. I would like to
single out my long-time room-mates Lisa Clarke and Stephan Hollenberg, as well
as the next-door neighbours Christina Eckes and Jure Vidmar. In no small part
thanks to you, it was always a pleasure to work in Amsterdam. Special thanks are
also extended to José Visser and Eric Breuker, who were always there for our VICI
group.
I would also like to thank my family and friends who have demonstrated so
much patience. I would like to specifically thank David van Bemmel and Peep
Schaepman for being there during my hour of need. And, of course, special thanks
to my parents, who have always supported all my endeavours. Lastly, my thanks
go out to the one whose patience and understanding I have tested to the full during
the past few years: my loved one, Eeke. The book is finally complete, my dear.
The research in this book was largely completed in the spring of 2013.
However, since then new literature has been added and the case law of the Court in
Strasbourg has been updated until the end of 2013.

1.1 Background and Purpose
This book analyzes the impact of the rights guaranteed in the European Convention
of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (hereafter ECHR) on private inter-
national law by examining the case law of the European Court of Human Rights
(hereafter the Court) in Strasbourg and selected national courts. Private international
law is traditionally concerned with the fair and efficient regulation of issues of private
law stemming from the concurrence of legal systems of different countries.1 The
diversity of the world’s legal systems concerning private law is the raison d’être of
private international law. This area of the law is thus only concerned with cases that
contain a foreign element. In handling this diversity of legal systems, private inter-
national law deals primarily with three main issues.2 The first of these is the issue of
jurisdiction—in an international case, the court of which country is competent to hear
a case? The second issue is that of the applicable law—the law of which country shall
be applied to this international case? The third and last main issue is that of the
recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments—under what circumstances may
a foreign judgment either be recognized and/or enforced in the forum? Clearly,
private international law requires a willingness to accept foreign solutions to legal

issues with foreign elements in order to facilitate cross-border legal relationships of a
private law nature.3
Private international law is also an area of law which is currently undergoing a
transformation, as its role and traditional foundations may be changing.4 Several
factors lie at the root of this. The continuing increase in interaction between people
from different countries, because of advances in transportation and telecommuni-
cation—a phenomenon commonly referred to as globalization—has, for example,
emphasized the importance of private international law, while it has, simulta-
neously, increased the demands on this area of law.5 Moreover, while private
international law and public international law appeared to have grown apart and
were consequently treated as separate areas of law, there are indications suggesting a
reversal of this trend.6 It has, for example, also been contended that private inter-
national law could play a more prominent role in the ‘global governance debate’.7
Another important development concerning private international law is that the
European Union has gradually discovered this area of law. This has made its role
more important, and has also had an impact on national rules of private interna-
tional law, as more and more areas covered by national private international law
have been and are being replaced by European private international law.8 This may
be a common refrain: these developments in public international law and European
law have brought changes to the traditional paradigm of private international law,
as concepts of these systems of law have put pressure on private international law.9
Private international law can no longer claim an isolated role, as it is being influ-
enced by other areas of law. The rights guaranteed in the ECHR may similarly have
an impact on private international law. This necessitates an analysis of that impact.
The ECHR is an international treaty containing a catalogue of rights that the
States which are parties to this instrument undertake to respect and guarantee to
everyone within their jurisdiction. These rights may—if this is at all possible—
only be limited insofar as the possibility thereto is contained within the instrument
itself.10 The ECHR thus establishes certain minimum requirements concerning the
rights contained in the Convention which the Contracting Parties are bound to
guarantee. These minimum requirements also apply to private international law
cases. It is not difficult to see how private international law and the rights guar-
anteed in the ECHR could clash, as, for example, the application of a foreign law

or the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments may result in a violation
of one of the rights guaranteed in the ECHR, particularly where the foreign law or
the foreign judgments originate from non-Contracting Parties.
Although private international law is certainly not deaf to the rights and obli-
gations of individuals, the most important function of private international law is
to coordinate the differences between legal systems. The ECHR, however, as a
human rights instrument, offers a number of fundamental rights to individuals
which the Contracting Parties are obligated to respect and guarantee. It is clear that
the creation of an efficient regulatory system can collide with the rights of an
individual. If too much emphasis is put on the rights of the individual within such a
system, the system will ultimately suffer. However, too much emphasis on the
functioning of the system of private international law at the expense of the rights
of individuals, which can be derived from the ECHR, could trigger state respon-
sibility for the Contracting Parties under this instrument. For example, it may,
from the point of view of co-operation between different States, be worthwhile to
recognize and enforce each other’s (foreign) judgments readily without too many
formalities. However, if omitting such formalities were to mean that a judge could
no longer check whether a fair trial has preceded the foreign judgment to be
enforced, the individual may be wronged.11
The relationship between private international law and human rights has,
incidentally, also come up in a slightly different context. It has recently been
attempted to hold multi-national corporations accountable for human rights vio-
lations allegedly committed in distant parts of the world. An example is a case
before the United States Supreme Court, Kiobel, et al., v. Royal Dutch Petroleum,
et al.,12 in which 12 individuals are seeking to hold major oil corporations
accountable in the United States for alleged human rights violations perpetrated in
Nigeria. Rules of private international law will in such cases determine if a court
has jurisdiction, and which law should be applied. However, this aspect of the
relationship between private international law and human rights will not be further
considered here, as this book will be confined to the question of what the impact of
the ECHR is on the three main issues of private international law. Whether private
international law can be used with regard to human rights violations, and if so,
how that may be achieved, are related, but separate, questions.13

4 1 Introduction
The impact of human rights, or fundamental rights, on private international law
is, of course, not an entirely new phenomenon. The German Bundes-
verfassungsgericht held for the first time back in 197114 that the German rules of
private international law had to comply with the fundamental rights enshrined in
the German Grundgesetz.15 This decision resulted in a discussion of whether the
connecting factors used in choice-of-law rules were discriminatory in using the
national law of the man as the connecting factor, which eventually led to a leg-
islative reform of German private international law in the area of family law.16
Similar developments have taken place in other Western European countries.17
Yet besides this impact on the connecting factor in choice-of-law rules, the
impact on private international law of fundamental rights, and particularly those
rights guaranteed in the ECHR, has been rather limited for a long time. The subject
was seldom broached by courts and similarly was not frequently discussed in the
literature.18 That has, however, gradually changed. The number of publications on
the subject, for example, has steadily increased since the turn of this century. The
most interesting development has been, however, the increase in the number of
court decisions dealing with the impact of the ECHR. In particular, the fact that the
European Court of Human Rights (the Court) has since decided a number of cases
specifically dealing with issues of private international law is of great interest, and
the issue also appears to have been taken up more by national courts of the
Contracting Parties.
In light of this increased attention by the Court, a new book on the impact of the
rights guaranteed in the ECHR on issues of private international law is necessary
in order to further assess what the ECHR’s impact on private international law is,
and how the Contracting Parties (or their courts) can fulfill their obligations under
the Convention in issues of private international law. While a fair number of
interesting studies on the impact of the ECHR in cases dealing with issues of
private international law have appeared, not many of them deal with all three main
questions of private international law, but instead restrict themselves to one or two
of them. There are two important studies that are exceptions to this.19 However
since the publication of these studies there have been significant further

did point out that there are a number of interesting studies on the subject. See for some interesting

developments with regard to private international law in the Court’s case law.
Moreover, this book will add a further focus on the meaning of Article 1 of the
ECHR for private international law. Finally, what this book will add to the debate
on the impact of the ECHR on private international is a further examination of case
law originating from three legal orders: England, the Netherlands, and Switzer-
land, where the issue of the impact of the ECHR on private international law has
not been very frequently discussed.20
1.2 Structure of the Book and Further Delineation
of the Subject
As stated above, this book analyzes the impact of the rights guaranteed in the
ECHR on private international law by examining the Court’s case law as well as
national case law. The over-arching question is: what is the impact of the ECHR
on private international law? This book departs from the assertion that the case law
of the Strasbourg Institutions (the Court and the Commission)21 best illustrates the
manner in which the ECHR may have an impact on private international law and
how possible violations of the ECHR in issues of private international law may be
prevented. The Court is particularly well positioned to offer binding guidance, as it
has final jurisdiction over the interpretation of the rights guaranteed in the ECHR
and the compliance of the Contracting Parties with the ECHR.22
To answer this broad question, it must be divided into three sub questions which
correspond with the three main issues of private international law. In other words:
the impact of the ECHR on private international law will be studied separately
with regard to jurisdiction, applicable law, and the recognition and enforcement of
foreign judgments. Prior to this, though, it is necessary to examine how the basic
obligation undertaken by the Contracting Parties in Article 1 ECHR relates to their
responsibilities in issues of private international law.
At an early stage the choice was made to include all three main questions of
private international law, as this would provide a full overview of the issues.
However, the subject became rather broad as a result. In order to ensure that the
book could be completed within a reasonable time some difficult choices had to be
made. Private international law has therefore been limited in this research to the
afore-mentioned three main issues. As a result, other topics, some of which are
considered to be part of private international law in at least some legal orders and
which may also raise interesting questions with regard to the impact of the rights
guaranteed in the ECHR, are not included in this book.23 Examples of such topics

6 1 Introduction
falling outside the scope of this study would be international arbitration,24 taking
evidence abroad, and the service of documents in international cases, which will
be treated only marginally as a topic relevant to the recognition and enforcement
of foreign judgments.25
Some topics that do arguably fall within the three main issues of private inter-
national law, which have been examined by the Court, also had to be left out of this
study because they are largely not truly concerned with a topic of private inter-
national law. In some legal orders immunities, for example, are considered to be
part of the issue of jurisdiction in private international law and as such are discussed
in treatises on private international law.26 The Court has also developed important
case law on the relationship between the right of access to a court ex Article 6(1)
ECHR and immunities.27 However, as immunities are more of a restriction derived
from public international law, this topic has not been included in this study.28
International child abduction is another topic that is considered to be part of
private international law, but which does not fit perfectly in this book. Although
the Court has discussed this issue extensively in its case law and the reasoning
used may be interesting for topics which are part of this book, it has been decided
not to include international child abduction as this would result in so much more
material that deserves and requires a separate study.29 Moreover, even though
international child abduction is considered to be an issue of private international
law, one should realize that the return orders in such cases are actually national
decisions, albeit in an international context, which distinguishes them from the
decisions discussed in Chaps. 7 and 8, in which the recognition and enforcement
of foreign judgments are discussed.
As stated above, the starting point in the search for the impact of the ECHR is
mainly confined to case law, particularly that of the Court. This means, for
example, that the impact of the ECHR on choice-of-law rules, and particularly on
connecting factors, is a topic that is only treated marginally, as the Court usually
limits its assessment of a case to whether the actual application of such rules (e.g.,
the applicable law in question) is in conformity with the ECHR. The Court, in
principle, does not review legislation in abstracto.30 The principle of

1.2 Structure of the Book and Further Delineation of the Subject 7
discrimination in relation to the connecting factors used in choice-of-law rules will
therefore not be fully examined.31 The book will thus assess the impact of the
ECHR by examining the relevant case law of the Strasbourg Institutions as well as
case law from selected national legal orders in Europe, but, where relevant to the
discussion, the doctrine in issues of private international law will also be included.
The book is concerned with the impact of the ECHR on private international
law, and while many rules of private international law are of international origin,32
every country does have its own rules of private international law. Therefore the
number of legal systems which could, theoretically, be drawn upon for case law is,
of course, the same number of Member States of the Council of Europe: forty-
seven.33 However, including all systems is neither desirable nor necessary. It is not
necessary, as the case law and practice of the national courts of the Contracting
Parties are primarily used as illustrations of the handling of the ECHR in issues of
private international law. It is not desirable, since including all systems would
mean a sacrifice of thoroughness. Consequently, this book will focus in its
assessment on the case law of the national courts and practice of England,34 the
Netherlands, and Switzerland.35 Occasionally, reference will also be made to
developments in other Contracting Parties—particularly Germany and France—
that illustrate important findings. In addition to case law, the doctrine and legis-
lation, in the broadest sense of the word,36 will be touched upon in this research.
Why the focus on England, the Netherlands, and Switzerland? As the national
case law is used in this research to unearth the solutions found in national legal
orders to possible conflicts between the rights guaranteed in the ECHR and private
international law, it is necessary and most interesting to choose legal systems
which are not only influential, but also diverse. Furthermore, it is in this context
most interesting to choose legal orders where the impact has been examined, but
where this issue has not yet fully been assessed. All these factors have been
accounted for in the choice of these three jurisdictions.37
Above, it was indicated that Germany is, in a way, the birthplace of the
discussion of the impact of fundamental rights on private international law. It is not

In this research I will focus on English cases of private international law and practice. One
should note in this regard, though, that England, Scotland, and Northern Ireland share the
Supreme Court. Moreover, many statutes, particularly those based on international treaties, apply
to all three parts of the United Kingdom. Finally, one should note that in relation to the case law
of the Court in Strasbourg, the United Kingdom is the respondent Contracting Party.

8 1 Introduction
surprising to find that this subject has been discussed often in the German liter-
ature.38 There is also a lively debate on the subject in France.39 However, in the
selected legal systems—England, the Netherlands, and Switzerland—the issue of
the impact of the ECHR on private international law has been less frequently and
not so elaborately discussed,40 and it is therefore of interest to examine the case
law from these jurisdictions. Moreover, for a researcher trained in Dutch law and
based at a Dutch university, the Netherlands is an obvious choice as one of the
three jurisdictions.
While the Netherlands is a civil law country, England has a common law
tradition and consequently takes quite a different approach to issues of private
international law. Furthermore, the position of the ECHR in the English legal order
is quite different from its position in the Dutch legal system. While the Nether-
lands—and Switzerland—have a ‘monist’ tradition with regard to the relationship
between national and international law, the United Kingdom follows the dualist
approach.41 In monist countries the ECHR is automatically part of the national
law. In dualist countries, however, further legislative action is required following
the ratification of an instrument in order for the ECHR to be enforceable in
national courts. The precise way in which it is enforceable depends on the terms of
the national legislation. In the United Kingdom the Human Rights Act 1998 has
indirectly incorporated the rights flowing from the ECHR into national law.
The choice of Switzerland adds another dimension to the discussion. While
both the Netherlands and the United Kingdom are members of both the Council of
Europe and the European Union, Switzerland is only a member of the Council of
Europe. In the interest of completeness it should be noted that Switzerland—like
the Netherlands—follows a monist approach and the ECHR provisions are applied
as self-executing in the national courts.42
1.3 Overview
After having set out the scope of this book in the introduction, the study will
continue in Chaps. 2 and 3 with a concise introduction to both private international
law and the ECHR. These two introductory chapters are included for readers, who

are less familiar with either of these two areas of the law. In Chap. 2 the partic-
ularities of private international law will be dealt with, including the importance of
the different sources of this area of law. This chapter will also provide a first foray
into an important part of this research by examining the public policy exception,
which is the traditional instrument used in private international law to deal with
fundamental rights. Chapter 3 provides a general introduction to the rights guar-
anteed in the ECHR. Here, one will find a review of the structure of the Con-
vention as well as its most important characteristics. In Chap. 4 an important
preliminary question to the research in this book will be answered: is the ECHR at
all applicable to issues of private international law? In this chapter the relationship
between Article 1 of the ECHR, which defines the scope of the Convention, and
private international law will be further discussed. Hereafter, the impact of the
ECHR on the three main issues of private international law will be elaborated
upon. In Chap. 5 the issue of jurisdiction in private international law will be dealt
with. The issue of applicable law is the subject of Chap. 6. The discussion of the
issue of the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments will be divided into
two parts, as the Court has delivered far more case law on this subject compared to
jurisdiction and applicable law. In Chap. 7 the obligation to recognize and enforce
foreign judgments, which may follow from the ECHR, will be examined. Chap-
ter 8 will discuss the possibility to invoke one of the rights guaranteed in the
ECHR against the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. Chapter 9
sets out the conclusions of the book.
