Review Quotes:
"This is a thorough and carefully structured account of the agglomeration of court decisions, scholarly writing and scanty regulation that constitutes private international law in Indonesia. No scholar working in the area in future will be able to avoid reference to this book, which is the first major English language work on Indonesian private international law. It contributes to, and clearly surpasses, the limited English-language scholarly literature on aspects of private international law in Indonesia." --Simon Butt and Tim Lindsey, Australian Journal of Asian Law
"This work will be a great resource for both Indonesian and non-Indonesian readers that want to have a holistic view on this subject. Law scholars and practitioners who want to understand the complex legal system of the country will benefit greatly from reading this book." --Viona Wijaya, Indonesian Law Journal "Indonesian Private International Law is a well-written and informative book, particularly valuable for those unfamiliar with Indonesia's legal landscape. While a basic understanding of private international law is necessary to fully appreciate the text, the book is accessible and enlightening ... it was a pleasure to read, and I highly recommend it." --Chukwuma Okoli, ConflictofLaws.net "The four monographs reviewed here, respectively devoted to China, India, Indonesia, and Japan, present very comprehensive developments on the principal components of private international law ... Each work is a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners, as it identifies, for each country, the rules in force, the international conventions ratified, a table of cited decisions, and a rich bibliography." --Revue critique de droit International Privé
