Abstract
Swiss practices of international co-operation in litigation are influenced by Switzerland’s federal system of government and by its national policy of neutrality, which has enabled it to avoid becoming embroiled in Europe’s wars for over a hunderd years. To some extent, these influences are responsible for a lack of harmony between Swiss and American procedures. However, it should be stressed at the outset that, although the difficulties inherent in obtaining Swiss co-operation in international litigation are often mentioned,1 the real problem is not that Switzerland is reluctant to grant any co-operation, but that it frequently insists upon compliance with its own procedures.
