An earlier version of this paper was presented at the International Conference on Contemporary Legal Scholarship: Achievements and Prospects, which was
organized by The Cegla Law Institute for Comparative and Private International Law, and held at Tel Aviv University in December 1999. I thank the participants
at that Conference for their valuable comments. I also thank Pilar Sansone for her excellent research assistance.
