Optimal rule-selection principles in Anglo-American contractual jurisdiction

This article contributes an important Anglo-American comparative extirpation of substantive principles relating to personal jurisdiction which operate as a fulcrum for a court entering a binding contractual judgement against an impacted party. It is the only work to look at personal jurisdiction in US contract actions evaluated in the context of special jurisdiction in matters relating to contract pursuant to Article 5 (1) of the Brussels Convention, and optimal rule-selection principles are consequently proposed on a transnational predicate. Jurisdictional propriety is reordered in terms of comportation with the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.
