The article takes up the example of online news-services to describe the overall purpose of Germany's public broadcasting corporation within the new networks of electronic media. It argues that the rise of the Internet is an evolutionary jump in the history of media. For this reason the traditional constitutional regime of guaranteeing pluralism in broadcasting can no longer be applied as a rationale and justification. Rather, a new constitutional type of conflict of law rules should be inaugurated to cope with the rising economic competition between public and private online news-services.

Current Volume VIII (2006) of the Yearbook of Private International Law is arguably one of the most comprehensive collections of essays in English-language of our time: It presents the reader with a broad overview on the status and trends of private international law from the United States to India, from France to Tunisia, from England to China, from Latvia to Qatar, from Sweden to Japan. All main areas of law are addressed: among others, marriage, including same-sex marriage, adoption and protection of children, euthanasia and living wills, inheritance, contracts, torts, insolvency. Each of the four traditional steps of the "conflict process" is taken into account: adjudicatory jurisdiction, international cooperation and procedure, applicable law and its various incidents, recognition of foreign judgments. Practitioners will especially benefit from several contributions on international arbitration. Beneficial for: scholars, lawyers, judges, notaries, lawyers in law departments of international enterprises, legal libraries, working in the field of Private International Law.
