Abstract
In the great tradition of the festschrift, Professor Wolff uses his contribu- tion to this volume to continue a debate with Professor Zachary Clopton over choice of law in the federal courts and the proper way to analyze and apply the Supreme Court’s opinion in Klaxon v. Stentor Electric Manufacturing Company. Professor Wolff reiterates his call for a careful account of federal jurisdictional policy in choice of law disputes, particularly in cases that enter federal court through jurisdictional pathways other than the general diversity statute, and he responds to several criticisms Professor Clopton has levied at the analytical framework he has proposed.
