Preface
The topic of this study goes back to a discussion with my doctoral advisor Professor Dr. Dr. h.c. Jürgen Basedow, Director of the Max Planck Institute for Comparative and International Private Law in Hamburg. I would like to express my most sincere appreciation for his crucial comments and ideas as well as for his constant support, despite the fact that the conclusions reached in this study do not necessarily reflect his views. I would also like to thank Professor Dr. Reinhard Bork for his fast second opinion on my dissertation and for being my mentor throughout my time as a student at the University of Hamburg.

In addition, a Fulbright scho
