Thanks to the activism of a relevant number of Intergoverrnmental Organizations, international conventions establishing uniform law for private cross-border relationships have become more and more numerous ever since the beginning of nineteenth century. Those instruments, however, failed to compose a coherent and complete system of rules. On the contrary, they gave rise to a legal framework characterized by overlaps as well as gaps. This paper investigates how such a problem has been addressed in the last decades, both under an actor-based approach and from the perspective of the quality of the legal texts. Thus, the initiatives aiming to a better coordination among the various International Organizations that are active in the field of the unification of private law as well as the legal solutions that seems to be representative of innovative trends are taken into consideration. The obstacles that made the efforts deployed in such a recodification process not always successful are then assessed, in order to verify whether different steps could be considered to improve the legal framework consistency. Finally, under a methodological point of view, it is submitted that, even if the shortcomings are still apparent, the unification of private law at the international level confirms its utility in the view to reduce legal uncertainty for private parties, particularly in those matters that are by their very nature cross-border, such as those related to the information technologies.
