Description
Summary:The book's compelling thesis is that the role of the forum non conveniens should be strengthened and even enhanced, particularly in light of modern advancements such as Internet transactions, efficient jet travel and telecommunications facilitating transfer of documents and testimony. Karayanni argues, more importantly, that in order to face technological complexities, the forum non conveniens doctrine needs to undergo a basic transformation. He proposes that American and English law doctrines similar to the forum non conveniens, like the reasonableness test and the forum conveniens doctrine, be integrated.
