The Trend-setting Developments in Conflict of Laws
Abstrak
This chapter examines the ‘vested or acquired rights’ theory of Professor A. V. Dicey in England and Professor J. H. Beale in the United States, which is traceable to Ulrich Huber (1635-94), a Dutch jurist-cum-judge. Huber’s formulations in respect of the binding force of law in general and conflict of laws in particular is derived from the sovereignty of states which, according to him, is unlimited and absolute. This view is in keeping with Hobbesian theory of sovereignty of states. The chapter aims to impress upon the Indian legal fraternity that it is high time to reorient their attitude and approach to conflict of laws or private international law.
