This research review, made possible by the recent convergence of intellectual property and private international law as critical disciplines, explores the most important papers on these now linked subjects. More and more issues of private international law arise in the area of intellectual property, and the articles selected chart the route that both disciplines have covered together, discussing both bridges built and 'dead-ends' reached.

Looking forward also to the future of the subject, Professor Paul Torremans' Intellectual Property and Private International Law will prove to be an essential research tool for all students, academics and practitioners working in this fast-developing area.
