Popis: The English choice of law rules for tort cannot be stated with any certainty. The most likely version, as a result of Chplin v Boys, is a double actionability rule, with provision for a proper law or ‘interests’ approach in exceptional cases, but if that is the law there is little cause for satisfaction. The purpose of this article is to consider what shape any future reform ofthe law in this area should take, confining the discussion, however, for reasons of space, to torts wholly committed within a single country.
