“…Анализ многочисленных доктринальных источников позволяет выделить два наиболее крупных научных подхода к проблеме негосударственного массива норм, регулирующих частноправовые (преимущественно, торговые) отношения в киберпространстве. В соответствии с первым речь идет о становлении автономной, конкурирующей с правом или даже Второй научный подход к нормам негосударственного регулирования отношений в киберпространстве характеризуется тем, что концепты e-merchant 42 , Internet lex mercatoria и киберправо (Law Cyberspace) 43 квалифицируются как осовремененные паттерны средневекового lex mercatoria, не претендующие на их квалификацию в качестве правовых.…”

“…Автор утверждает, что ключом к «омоложению» Law Merchant является принцип прагматизма, который также способствует развитию инновационной системы онлайн-разрешения споров. Так, онлайн-правила разрешения споров, закрепленные в правилах eBay или priceline.com, служат в качестве моделей торговой практики, а также в качестве средства регулирования торговых операций с потребителями 48 .…”

The central institute of private international law — conflict of law — in the modern globalization and information context is evolving, which is largely due to the paradigm shifts in law, laid down and developed based on international commercial arbitration. The widely interpreted concept of «rules of law» actualizes a completely new view of conflicting arrays of rules: the law of the state and the system of non-state regulators. The medieval lex mercatoria, revived in the XX century, is modernized by cyberspace, acquires a new sound in the form of e-merchant or lex informatica, especially in the context of the parallel development of smart contracts and new decentralized forms of dispute resolution, one of which is blockchain arbitration. In particular, the issues of conflict of law, traditional for cross-border transactions, arise in relation to smart contracts, which, using blockchain technology, are inherently linked to several jurisdictions. It is important to reflect on the questions of applicability of traditional conflict-of-laws bindings to the regulation of relevant relations, including through forecasting the practice of choosing the law of a state, the substantive rules of which are adapted to the use of new technologies, or recourse to the rules of non-state regulation.

Modern economy and society are reconfigured in connection with the emergence and development of digital platforms, which is figuratively referred to as “uberization of everything”. This became possible with the development of information and communication technologies and the formation of cyberspace. The key problem for lawyers is the construction of the legal superstructure of cyberspace, which leads to the emergence of a number of concepts: cyberlaw, “platform law”, internet law etc. However, while science is trying to comprehend the relevant paradigm shifts, a huge array of cross-border transactions are made by consumers with platformtype companies; cross-border disputes are resolved through online dispute resolution (ODR) procedures in international commercial arbitration or courts; law enforcement practice is being formed, which responds to the challenges of the cyber environment. It is the tools of private international law that are most in demand in regulating the relevant relations. What would be more viable in modern conditions: international private law or cyber law?

“…The influence of these laws may well be reflected in the fact that many civil law countries still restrict their insolvency law to merchants or traders. Another aspect that reflects many modern insolvency laws is the notion of the equal treatment of foreign creditors and local creditors—merchants were protected while travelling from fair to fair, and restrictions against foreign merchants were prohibited. Nevertheless in practice, and this resonates with modern experience, ‘local merchant courts were not always impartial in their treatment for foreigners’ and ‘in some cases, local merchant courts insisted that foreign merchants should bind themselves unconditionally to forum law’…”

“…Domestic insolvency laws that were once drafted to deal with individual traders or single corporate entities must now deal with multiple forms of business association often interwoven into complex business structures and engaged in sophisticated business operations. Moreover, parties may not have the ‘luxury’ to assess the risk of inadequate domestic insolvency laws as modern forms of international trade and commerce may bring a party into connection with a jurisdiction unexpectedly—for example through commerce over the internet or the speed with which tangible assets may move between jurisdictions.…”

Intl Insolvency Rev

The last 20 years has seen an explosion of approaches for dealing with an inevitable consequence of globalised markets, that of cross‐border insolvencies. This article places phenomena such as the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law Model Law on Cross‐border Insolvency and Cross‐border Insolvency Agreements (also known as Protocols) within the context of developing laws on international commercial transactions. First, it briefly describes the evolution of the international commercial law (sometimes known as the law merchant) to provide a context to understanding the international commercial responses to the problems created by cross‐border insolvencies. Next, it outlines the range of approaches being adopted by states and multilateral bodies in recent decades to resolve cross‐border insolvency issues. Finally it draws some preliminary conclusions on the potential implication of this transnationalisation process and broader international commercial law perspective, in particular on the capacity of cross‐border insolvency agreements to address cross‐border insolvency issues.
