National law has already been replaced by uniform law conventions and the European Community law in many cases. In the near future, national law will be thrust even more into the background if a European civil code comes into force. It is however not yet clear how this new law should be applied. Urs Peter Gruber attempts to develop a coherent and independent method of statutory interpretation of uniform law conventions and the European Community law. He also deals with many other methodical questions such as the doctrine of stare decisis in international disputes and the problem of judge-made law in general. In addition, he focuses on the methods of legislation. The basis of his work is a broad comparative analysis that includes civil law systems as well as the laws of England and the United States. With his work, the author hopes to stimulate an international debate and support the development of a truly international jurisprudence.
