Conflict Rules in Cyberspace: Tradition and Future

网络的虚拟性和无界性使得网络争议中的法律选择困难重重,本文试图通过对西方新近判例和学说的梳理,揭示传统冲突法对这一问题积极回应的努力,以及"网络自治理论"对网络冲突法的影响和可能的前景。在此基础上,本文认为,一种灵活的、着眼问题的、各种制度相互补充的法律调整方式将是我们解决网络冲突法问题的最佳途径。

The choice of law is entangled in the virtual and borderless cyberspace.The current paper tries to examine the latest cases of the American courts and relevant doctrines with the aim to reflect on the applicability of the traditional conflicts of law rules and evaluate the possible influence and prospects of Cyberanarchism.
