Summary
Argentina enacted a new internal dimension of its system of private international law (PIL) within the framework of the Civil and Commercial Code adopted in 2014. As a result, the system looks now more balanced and in tune with the current requirements of international legal relationships than it used to be at its origin. Indeed, by the end of the nineteenth century, the Argentinian system of PIL could be considered to be advanced. It not only had the interesting internal dimension contained in the Civil Code which, despite being incomplete and non-systematic, possessed a notable internationalist accent due to the adoption of the most significant doctrine of that time.
