Private international law (PIL) might seem disconnected from peacebuilding and peacekeeping efforts. However, this perception falls short. PIL, contrary to public international law’s direct peacekeeping potential, indirectly contributes to peace by fostering mutual respect between states. The relationship between PIL and peace stems from the recognition and respect states show for each other’s legal systems. PIL operates on the principle of comity, where states acknowledge the applicability of foreign laws to resolve cases. In essence, while PIL’s impact on peace is indirect and modest, its emphasis on mutual respect and fair treatment contributes to peaceful relations between states, making it an important element in the broader context of peacebuilding and peacekeeping efforts. Private international law (PIL) does not determine substantive fairness for parties but focuses on localizing cases at a meta-level of conflict-of-laws. This localization is guided by party, trade, and regulatory interests, and is rooted in neutrality and respect for other legal systems. While the principle of equivalence and neutrality remains foundational in PIL, exceptions and limitations have been established over time to address specific scenarios, ensuring a balanced approach that respects both foreign legal systems and fundamental legal principles.
Albert Hirschman hat sein schmales, aber überaus gehaltvolles Werk über ‚Leidenschaften und Interessen‘ mit einer nachdenkenswerten Bemerkung beschlossen, die veranschaulicht, warum die Beschäftigung mit der Ideen- und Geistesgeschichte auch aus heutiger Sicht noch lohnenswert ist: „Das ist wohl das einzige, was man vom Studium der Geschichte, insbesondere der Theorie- und Geistesgeschichte erwarten darf: Nicht, dass die Streitfragen entschieden, sondern dass das Niveau der Auseinandersetzung über sie gehoben wird.“
Die im vorliegenden Band abgedruckten Beiträge wurden in den 25 Jahren zwischen 1997 und 2022 in unterschiedlichen Zeit- und Festschriften veröffentlicht und für die vorliegende Zusammenstellung behutsam überarbeitet.
