Innerhalb der EU motivieren Gerichtsstandsvereinbarungen wie kein zweites Instrument des IZPR zu grenzüberschreitendem Handel und fördern so die europäische Integration. Zugleich wird unter Verweis auf die Errungenschaften des wechselseitigen Vertrauens und des Anerkennungsprinzips in der EU die zuständigkeitsrechtliche Nachprüfung von Urteilen, die auf Gerichtsstandsvereinbarungen beruhen, abgelehnt. Urteile des forum derogatum werden europaweit anerkannt. Niklas Brüggemann analysiert internationale Gerichtsstandsvereinbarungen umfassend aus zuständigkeitsrechtlicher, rechtshängigkeitsrechtlicher und anerkennungsrechtlicher Perspektive. Er zeigt auf systematischer, rechtspolitischer und rechtsvergleichender Grundlage, dass die Derogationswirkung internationaler Gerichtsstandsvereinbarungen de lege ferenda durch einen Anerkennungsversagungsgrund geschützt werden sollte.

Silvan Schenkel untersucht mit dem Deutschen Juristentag 1933 in Leipzig ein zentrales Ereignis für die Konstitution der juristischen Professionselite in der NS-Zeit. Seit 1860 waren die Juristentage der zentrale wissenschaftliche Kongress für Juristen. Der Parteijurist Hans Frank okkupierte den traditionellen "Deutschen Juristentag" und verwandelte die Tagung in ein propagandistisches Forum für die Rechtserneuerung nach dem Leitprinzip "Durch Nationalsozialismus dem deutschen Volk das deutsche Recht". Ausgehend von den polykratischen Strukturen analysiert der Autor die Reden, den Tagungsverlauf sowie die Wirkungsgeschichte des Juristentages 1933. Deutlich wird dabei, wie dieser Tagung die Schlüsselrolle für die Formierung jener Juristenmilieus zukam, die in den folgenden Jahren das juristische System zu einem effektiven und aus Sicht vieler Deutscher legitimierenden Teil der NS-Herrschaft machten.
