    “The contribution of the Genevan Charles Brocher (1811-1884) is […] linked to private international law […]. In his New Treatise on Private International Law (1876) and then in his Course on Private International Law (1882-1883) [the present work], Brocher considers private international law as “the law of laws,” a law superior to national laws, whose self-interest he fears. While wishing to respect the Napoleonic Code as applied in Geneva, he combines the application of personal and real statutes with an original conception of “international public order.” Without being confused with domestic public order, this international public order is not a new form of status, but a “modality resulting from special circumstances.” […] Brocher preserves the “expansive force” of the territorial element of the State, just as he restricts the influence of individual will by subordinating it to the law.” Despite these concessions to statutory tradition, Brocher's work served to acclimatize Italian theories in countries where the Napoleonic codification was applied.
