- This is the first book-length study devoted entirely to examining the forum (non) conveniens doctrine’s past, present, and future from English law’s perspective. By assessing an extensive list of historical and contemporary sources in England and elsewhere, it seeks to fill gaps in relevant knowledge of forum (non) conveniens in England, and challenge certain orthodoxies concerning its modern-day operation. Building on the historical, comparative, and doctrinal assessment of the doctrine's past and present, the book proceeds to make normative contributions about its future development by providing a theoretical and pragmatic case for the doctrine’s refinement.
