What is Routledge Handbook of International Family Law (Routledge Handbooks) about?

Globalisation and the vast migrations of capital and labour that have accompanied it in recent decades have transformed families, and family law , in once unimaginable ways. Families have been torn apart and new families have been created. Borders have become more porous, allow-ing adoptees and mail order brides to join new families and women fleeing domestic violence to escape from old ones. People of different nationalities marry , have children, and divorce, not necessarily in that order. They file suits in their respective home states or third states, demand-ing support, custody , and property . Otherwise law-abiding parents risk jail in desperate efforts to abduct their own children from foreign ex-spouses. All these scenarios, and many more, give rise to cross-border issues and bring international family law (IFL) into play . IFL has historically been regarded primarily as the province of “private international law”, which refers to the rules regarding conflict of laws in disputes between private persons, such as spouses. Private international law draws on conflict of laws principles in general, as well as the conventions drafted by the Hague Conference on Private Internatio
