The global turn in private international law.

Summary The 4th cover indicates: "The purpose of this collection of analyses is to make accessible to a French-speaking readership "cases" that are essentially, but not exclusively, contentious, and that do not generally appear either in books or in the traditional teaching programs of private international law. Indeed, either they come from other legal systems and therefore require explanations of a comparative nature, or their stakes go beyond legal technique and are therefore only understandable once enlightened by the contribution of another discipline. What they have in common is that they illustrate the methodological and epistemological mutations induced in the legal field by what is now called the global turn, which crosses all the social and human sciences. But the cases thus chosen are also intended to show that the law of cross-border relations has a determining causal role in these ongoing developments. Their analysis tends to open up a space for resistance, deliberation and transformation within the normative regimes applicable to issues as sensitive as environmental protection, the status of migrants, digital platforms or the governance of the globalized economy.
