EU conflict-of-law rules are contained mainly in six separate Regulations, with several others flanking them. This complex picture raises the questions of how easy access to this area of law is and to what extent it promotes legal certainty and predictability of results. Both issues link to the idea of coherence. Against this background, this article employs several different perspectives to examine the current level of coherence in EU conflict-of-laws rules analytically, also taking into account the recent Commission Proposal for a further Regulation. The article shows that, in particular, many structural and topical parallels exist, and argues that many remaining inconsistencies can easily (and should) be corrected because they are obvious and in part nearly inexplicable outliers.

欧盟法律冲突规则中的一致性维度

欧盟的法律冲突规则主要包含在六个单独的法规中，其他几个则在其两侧。这个复杂的图景引发了这样一个问题：进入该法律领域有多么容易，以及在多大程度上促进了法律的确定性和结果的可预测性。这两个问题都与连贯性的思想有关。在这种背景下，本文采用了几种不同的观点，以分析性地考察了欧盟法律冲突规则中当前的连贯性，同时也考虑了欧盟委员会最近对进一步法规的提议。该文章特别指出，存在许多结构上和主题上的相似之处，并指出许多剩余的矛盾可以很容易地（并且应该被纠正），因为它们是显而易见的，部分是几乎无法解释的异常。
