Abstract
Article 3 of the Hague Principles on Choice of Law in International Commercial Contracts is the first quasi-legislative text to allow explicitly for the choice of non-state law also before state courts. This article puts the provision into a broader context, discusses their drafting history and particular issues involved in their interpretation. It also provides a critical evaluation. Article 3 does not respond to an existing need, and its formulation, the fruit of a compromise between supporters and opponents of choosing non-state law, makes the provision unsuccessful for state courts and arbitrators alike.
