THE CONCEPT AND ESSENCE OF THE NORMS OF FOREIGN LAW AND REFERENCES TO FOREIGN LAW

Abstract

In the regulation of international private-legal relations, including certain disputes, it is important to properly consider and apply the application of foreign law and reference to foreign law. This will be the basis for a correct, effective and fair settlement of the dispute. Therefore, it is especially important for law enforcement agencies, especially judges, to understand and comprehend the norms and concepts of foreign law and the concept and essence of reference to foreign law. On this basis, this article examines the norms of foreign law and the issues of reference to foreign law in relation to substantive and conflict-of-law regulation. In particular, the study shows that in order to ensure justice, full protection of the rights and legitimate interests of foreign citizens, it is important for the courts to apply foreign law correctly and reasonably, using references to foreign law through conflict of laws. The author concludes that the application of foreign law to a complex relationship with a foreign element allows this relationship to be integrated into a closer social and cultural environment in which its development takes place more naturally.
