Rick has published extensively on historical and comparative private international law aspects covering a wide range of subjects, including secured transactions, assignment of receivables, agency, trusts, contracts, and unjust enrichment. Notable publications include works on the historical evolution of credit security in Roman law and contributions to the Asser series concerning international property law.
