Approaches to the conflict of lawsInstead of the classic chronological, historical approach to private international law, W. Tetley has divided conflict of law theory into five theoretical approaches: 1) single concepts (single principles); 2) multiple numbered rules (infra); 3) general texts (infra); 4) national legislation and international conventions; 5) methodologies (infra)
RELATED TERMS--------------------------------------
Chronological
Arranged in the order in which events happened; according to date.
Private
Not general, as a private act of the legislature; not in office; as, a private person, as well as an officer, may arrest a felon; individual, as your private interest; not public, as a private way, a private nuisance.
International
That which pertains to intercourse between nations. International law is that which regulates the intercourse between, or the relative rights of nations.
Law
A rule or body of rules of conduct inherent in human nature and essential to or binding upon human society. The learned profession that is mastered by graduate study in a law school and that is responsible for the judicial system.
Conflict
The opposition or difference between two judicial jurisdictions, when they both claim the right to decide a cause, or where they both declare their incompetency.
Single

Rules
English law. The rules of the King's Bench and Fleet are certain limits without the actual walls of the prisons, where the prisoner, on proper security previously given to the marshal of the king's bench, or warden of the fleet, may reside; those limits are considered, for all legal and practical purposes, as merely a further extension of the prison walls.
General
1) A principal officer, particularly in the army. 2) Something opposed to special; as, a general verdict, the general issue, which expressions are used in contradistinction to special verdict, special issue. 3) Principal, as the general post office. 4) Not select, as a general ship. 5) Not particular, as a general custom. 5) Not limited, as general jurisdiction. 7) This word is sometimes annexed or prefixed to other words to express or limit the extent of their signification; as Attorney General, Solicitor General, the General Assembly.
National
National or public domain. All the property which belongs to the state is comprehended under the name of national or public domain.
Legislation
Written and approved laws. Also known as "statutes" or "acts." In constitutional law, one would talk of the "power to legislate" or the "legislative arm of government" referring to the power of political bodies (eg: house of assembly, Congress, Parliament) to write the laws of the land.
