Synopsis: The third edition of "Conflict of Laws" by Atul M. Setalvad offers a comprehensive analysis of legal conflicts, particularly in the context of Indian law, while drawing comparisons with English and other common law systems. The text highlights developments in the field since the first edition in 2007 and the second edition in 2009. This edition, revised by esteemed legal professionals, incorporates updates until June 2014, addressing various international conventions, legislative reforms, and judicial decisions. Setalvad's work remains focused on the application of these laws within Indian courts, especially in areas such as contracts, family law, and enforcement of foreign judgments. The book underscores the need for a deeper understanding of the subject due to India's increasing engagement in international legal matters following its economic liberalization.
