Dear
Colleagues:
Congratulations
go to the ODG authors, editors and contributors of these new books from Hart:
Reconstructing the Global Framework for Housing Finance
Guido Comparato and Irina Domurath
This book uncovers the legal principles and rules around mortgages
devised by various institutions beyond the national dimension.
Mortgages have become a transferable commodity with the potential to
affect international financial stability and consumer welfare, and are now
being subject to a process of transnationalisation.
The book reconstructs the development of mortgage law and considers its
interaction with transnational law. It highlights the emergence of new policy
objectives and rationales for regulation that have led to changes in the
structure and functions of mortgage laws, identifying tensions between the
goals of risk mitigation, financial stability, consumer protection, and housing
justice.
Guido Comparato is Senior Lecturer in Law at Birkbeck College,
University of London, UK.
Irina Domurath is Assistant Professor at the University of Padova,
Italy.

Edited by Birke Häcker and Johannes Ungerer
This landmark publication tackles default rules in private law in
comparative perspective. Often underestimated, default rules are non-mandatory
rules that kick in where nothing else has been agreed or provided.
The contributions include:
- behavioural aspects and the role of platform terms in the digital age;
- the remit and operation of defaults in different areas, ranging from
contract and commercial law to succession, civil procedure and private
international law;
- a comparison between Common law and Civilian approaches as well as the
EU level;
- the perspectives of different 'players' engaged in the generation and
application of default rules.
Birke Häcker is Schlegel Professor of Civil Law, Common Law and
Comparative Law, and Director of the Institute of International and Comparative
Private Law, University of Bonn, Germany.
Johannes Ungerer is Erich Brost Senior Research Lecturer in German
Law, European and International Private Law at the Law Faculty and St Hilda's
College, University of Oxford, UK, as well as Global Associate Professor of
Law, University of Notre Dame (USA) in England.
