Internationally Mandatory Rules: Different Theories Explaining the Mechanism of their Application
https://doi.org/10.24833/0869-0049-2010-1-85-109
Abstract
The article examines different theories, which were proposed in Western European literature for explanation of the notion of internationally mandatory rules (art.1192, Russian Civil Code). The content, advantages and disadvantages of the following theories are analyzed: theory of strictly territorial application of public law rules, special connection theory, theory of the proper law of contract, theory of taking internationally mandatory rules into consideration as facts of the case, as well as theory of special multilateral conflict of law rules. The author does not recommend using different criteria in order to determine the opportunity of taking into consideration the internationally mandatory rules of lex contractus, on the one hand, and internationally mandatory rules of third states, on the other hand. The author comes to conclusion that the most promising are the special connection theory and the theory of taking internationally mandatory rules into consideration as facts of the case, as well as their combination, which provides opportunity of application of one or another internationally mandatory rule on two consecutive levels – the level of international private law and substantive law level.
