dc.description.abstract<p>Globalisation, free movement of labour and migration affect regulations on judicial co-operation and cross-border proceedings in family matters, including family maintenance. Since the turn of the millennium, EU (procedural) family law has emerged as a field of law. The EU Maintenance Regulation was draft ed concurrently with the 2007 Hague Convention on maintenance, creating a direct link between EU law and international law. Before then, the Brussels regime on the jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of civil and commercial matters had a few provisions regulating family mediation. So did its parallel instrument, the Lugano Convention, which extends the free movement rulings to the entire single market, including European Free Trade Association (EFTA) states. Despite the fact that the Agreement on the European Economic Area (EEA) widens the single market and the four freedoms to states outside the EU, the development of family law in the EEA or EFTA has stagnated. International law and EU law on family maintenance have taken a leap forward and formed a connection. Simultaneously, the connection between EU law and EFTA law has weakened: the Treaty of Amsterdam has developed the competences of the EU, whereas EFTA law has maintained the <i>status quo</i>. <p>Currently, family maintenance is regulated on five levels: (1) on an international level through the Hague regime, (2) on an EU level, (3) on an EFTA level, (4) on a regional level, and finally (5) on a national level. The three first levels of law are interconnected and partially overlapping. However, a multi-level approach may be beneficial for regulating family maintenance in a multi-speed Europe. A multi-level, multi-speed approach may also increase complexity and opacity, creating an intricate web of regulation. <p>This chapter examines the interplay between instruments at different levels and discusses whether the relationships are constructive or disruptive. The existence of several levels of regulation results in complexity, yet the levels are complementary, filling lacunae. This chapter explores how different levels of law could be used to enhance integration of civil procedure, including the advantages and disadvantages of each level. The focus is on managing multispeed integration, where some countries are part of, or closely tied to, the single market, but do not participate in judicial co-operation.en_US
