Answer
Spring's proxy mechanism doesn't intercept self-invocations.
When a method calls another method of the same class, the call is not intercepted by Spring's proxy. This means that transactional behavior won't be applied. For example, if a method annotated with @Transactional calls another method in the same class, the second method won't participate in the transaction.
