Publications Benedetta’s doctoral dissertation (Ph.D. in International Law from the University of Padua, Italy) was published as a book in the series of books directed by Professor Fausto Pocar. It addresses the issue of the applicable law to legal capacity of natural persons in regards to different fields, among which is international trade and family matters. Additionally, in her second book she analyzed the European Community (EC) Rome I Regulation and the issues of the applicable law to contractual obligations. Benedetta’s most recent book on Exclusive Jurisdiction in Intellectual Property was published in a series of books of the Max Planck Institute for comparative and international private law in 2012. In this book Benedetta argues that exclusive jurisdiction rules related to intellectual property rights cases are not only insufficiently supported by the arguments usually invoked in their favor, but are also in fact contrary to public international law provisions on the avoidance of a denial of justice and should therefore be abandoned. A full list of Benedetta’s published works (including articles from refereed and non-refereed journals, both Italian and international) is available to download from this page.
