Item The interaction between family law, succession law and private international law: An introduction(Intersentia, 2021) Scherpe, Jens; Bargelli, ElenaAt the national level, the rules of substantive family and succession law work with private international law rules created specifically for these substantive laws. Hence, there cannot be any question that there is an interaction between the substantive family and succession law and private international law and that they significantly influence each other. However, over the last 20 years, private international law instruments by the European Union (EU) in family law, and more recently also in succession law, have replaced or at least supplemented national private international law instruments.
