"In recent decades, the rise in cross-border law violations has harmed numerous victims around the globe. The damages are often dispersed and low-level. As a result, the private enforcement gap has deepened and collective redress represents an interesting procedural instrument that is able to provide effective access to justice. This book analyses thoroughly the dominant collective redress models adopted in the EU. Data from 13 Member States has been catalogued and categorised. The research mainly focuses on the consumer law field but frequent references to financial and data protection-related cases are made. The dominant collective redress models are then studied from a private international law perspective. In particular, the book highlights the current mismatch between collective redress on the one hand, and rules on international jurisdiction on the other. Additionally, it notes that barriers to cross-border litigation remain significant for victims and their representatives. The unprecedented empirical study included in this book confirms that statement. Observing that EU measures have not satisfactorily lowered those barriers, the author proposes the creation of a new head of jurisdiction for cases of international collective redress. This book will be of interest to private international law scholars, researchers, students, legal practitioners, judges and policy-makers. It is a reference point for those with an interest in cross-border collective redress in particular, and private international law in general."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

"La régulation du contentieux international des actions de groupe constitue le prolongement dans l'ordre international des fonctions poursuivies par une action de groupe dans l'ordre interne (l'accès à la justice, l'efficacité économique et la régulation des marchés), et vise à assurer la sécurité juridique, la prévisibilité et l'harmonie internationale des solutions. Cette régulation s'avère pourtant difficile et complexe, notamment en raison de la concurrence des ordres juridiques en matière de redressement des dommages de masse et de l'inadéquation des méthodes et instruments de droit international privé à la résolution d'un contentieux complexe, impliquant une multitude de parties et présentant une forte dimension régulatoire. La globalisation du contentieux international des actions de groupe soulève des questions complexes de conflits de juridictions, de conflits de lois, de coordination de procédures ainsi que de reconnaissance et d'exécution des décisions."
