Abstract
Although U.S. choice-of-law (or conflict-of-laws) principles have been notoriously unstable and have led to unpredictable results, matters may be settling down to the point where conflicts rules or near-rules are emerging. To be sure, they are narrower rules than the ones that were employed by U.S. courts before the revolution began in the 1960's, but their emergence may foster increased predictability and stability in litigation. Nebraska makes for an interesting case study as much of its new conflicts jurisprudence can be distilled into rules or near-rules.
