In real life, bodies of persons are qualitatively heterogeneous and present in large numbers.

Vincent Stangenberg examines the principle of alignment in European conflict and jurisdiction law, addressing the interplay between jurisdiction and applicable law. He explores the benefits of domestic law application, challenges in foreign law usage, and advocates reforms such as specialized chambers and modern technologies.
