Rules of conflict of laws applicable to contractual obligations in the USA
Němečková, Pavla ; Bříza, Petr (advisor) ; Zavadilová, Marta (referee)
Conflict of laws in contracts in the USA Abstract This thesis is focused on Conflict of Laws in the area of contractual relationship in the United States of America. Selected issues are being compared with law of the European Union. The First Chapter elaborates on the specific issues in Conflict of Laws, which are typical for the USA. These are mainly caused by the fact that within the USA, two separate legal systems operate on different levels - state and federal law. These specific issues also include the so- called idea of law-market or forum-shopping. Then I briefly summarize the history of American Conflict of Laws and describe the approaches that bear importance for the development of Conflict of Laws. The Second Chapter is focused on party autonomy in choice of law, its permissibility and limitations. Having used recent case law, I outline the approach to autonomous choice of law in certain types of contracts. The end of Chapter Two is about autonomous choice of law under the Uniform Commercial Code, which harmonizes the area of commercial law and which has been accepted in all American states. The Third Chapter deals with the absence of choice of law and finding the applicable law. I described the most widely used method under the Second Restatement, then the method under First Restatement and also...

Contractual obligations in private international law
Haasová, Tereza ; Pauknerová, Monika (advisor) ; Růžička, Květoslav (referee)
The objective of this Master's thesis is to analyze the rules of law governing contractual obligations in private international law. First, the relevant sources of law and their concrete application are examined through descriptive and analytical method. The thesis is then focusing on two specific phenomena that have significantly influenced the development of the field in the last few decades. The first one is a gradual process of unification taking place at the legislation level. The second one is called "new lex mercatoria" and represents a non-sate source of rules governing contractual obligations with a cross-border element. Both of the phenomena are analyzed from both theoretical and practical point of view. The thesis is divided in five chapters and the analysis progresses from a general to a more specific level. The first chapter focuses on the legal definitions indispensable for a more detailed analysis provided in the following chapters. In order to better contextualize the rules governing contractual relationships in the international private law, the second chapter is dedicated to its historical evolution. Moreover, the chapter introduces and compares methods regulating contractual relationships in the international private law, while acknowledging the specific circumstances of their creation....

The law applicable to obligations with an international aspect
Reimarová, Eva ; Růžička, Květoslav (advisor) ; Kučera, Zdeněk (referee)
The topic of this thesis is the law applicable to obligations with an international aspect, which is an area that presents a complex and important part of private international law. Statutes dealing with obligations with an international aspect may be of national, international or EU origin and employ different methods to regulate such obligations. Therefore, in comparison with national legal disciplines, the determination of the appropriate legal statute may prove challenging. One of the questions this thesis deals with is the relationship between these statutes and the basic principles upon which the selection between them should be made. Obligations with an international aspect are at the present time dominated by two EU regulations, namely the Rome I Regulation which deals with contractual obligations and the Rome II Regulation which deals with non-contractual obligations. A large portion of this thesis is devoted to their analysis. Instead of a detailed description of their every provision, which for the purpose of this work is unnecessary, this thesis focuses on the scope of application of these Regulations, the conflict rules and the scope of the applicable law. Chapters two and three are a general outline of the issues that follow in this work. The second chapter explains the basic terms...

Kubát, Jindřich ; Pavlok, Jan (advisor) ; Kropáčová, Marie (referee)
Diplomová práce z oboru mezinárodního práva soukromého pojednává o současné kolizněprávní úpravě smluvních a mimosmluvních závazkových právních vztahů v právu Evropských společenství, a konkrétně o Římské úmluvě o právu rozhodném pro smluvní závazkové vztahy, o návrhu na její modernizaci a transformaci na komunitární nařízení (?Řím I?) a o návrhu nařízení o právu použitelném na mimosmluvní závazky (?Řím II?). Práce je rozdělena do tří kapitol. První kapitola se věnuje obecným otázkám mezinárodního práva soukromého a jeho postavení v právu ES a v právu ČR a jejich vzájemnému poměru. Druhá kapitola rozebírá jednotlivé instituty v Římské úmluvě a porovnává je s připravovanými změnami a s tuzemskou úpravou. Třetí kapitola se zabývá připravovanou úpravou mimosmluvních závazkových vztahů v právu ES. Celá práce dochází k závěrům o dopadu jednotlivých ustanovení na českou právní úpravu.
