From 26 to 27 July 2016, the Faculty of Law and Economics at the University of Bayreuth hosted the Congress of the Network of Private International Law and of Integration: A European Perspective (REDPREA). Established in 2012 at the University of Granada, the Network, led by Professors Fernando Esteban de la Rosa and Sixto Sánchez Lorenzo, aims to enhance collaboration among universities in teaching and research on private comparative law. The congress featured speeches focusing on international contract law and alternative dispute resolution. In the realm of international contract law, topics included recent legislative instruments in Latin America (Adriana Drezyin de Klor), the significance of regulation techniques (Claudia Madrid Martínez), objectives for developing principles on international commercial contracts (Sixto Sánchez Lorenzo), autonomy of will in livestock farming contracts (Irene Canfora, Amarillide Genovese), and a comparative study on abuse of weakness, trust, or dependence (María Luisa Palazón Garrido). Regarding alternative dispute resolution, discussions provided insights into consumer mediation and EU law in Italy (Nicola Scannicchio, Giada Azadi), access to ADR in consumer disputes across various European countries, particularly Germany (Pablo Cortés, Rosa Miquel Sala), and the private international law issues raised by new EU legislative instruments (Fernando Esteban de la Rosa).
