Should English courts hear such claims? What law governs issues raised by such claims? Can foreign judgments given on such claims be recognised and enforced in the UK? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMany questions such as these have arisen in relation to cases dealing with the tortious liability of the UK government and its officials for extraterritorial public acts committed during the conflicts in Kosovo, Afghanistan, and Iraq, and the 'war on terror'. \u003cem\u003eTorts in UK Foreign Relations \u003c\/em\u003eexamines the English courts' treatment of such issues and offers a better understanding of this contested area of private international law. It shows that a defining characteristic of such tortious claims is that they are often subjected to the choice-of-law process and lead to the application of foreign law. Further, the author clarifies the nature of the doctrines operating in this field, maps out the relationship between different jurisdictions and rules that are engaged, and criticises the current approach to choice-of-law, while arguing that English tort law should play a more prominent role. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eComprehensive and methodological, \u003cem\u003eTorts in UK Foreign Relations\u003c\/em\u003e will appeal widely to academics, practitioners, and students in the fields of private international law, foreign relations law, tort law, and public law.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ugljesa Grusic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198869223\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198869221\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/13\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.56lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.74h x 7.00w x 0.86d","brand":"Ugljesa Grusic","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46825864429823,"sku":"9780198869221","price":195.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9ab9a676-a995-487d-9f2f-41500f9fb1c9.jpg?v=1746073863","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/torts-in-uk-foreign-relations-ugljesa-grusic-9780198869221","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
