Conflicts of Law in Domestic Jurisdictions in Interwar Poland and Czechoslovakia

Abstract

In the interwar years multiple jurisdictions existed within Poland and Czecho-slovakia. This article describes how these countries dealt with this problem and how and with what degree of success they tried to solve it.

The system of inter-regional law or rather laws that were in force in those countries is also described and, above all, the connection factors that determined which law (lex fori, rei sitae) would be applicable.
