Many international norms that have emerged in recent years are not
set out in formal treaties. They are not concluded in formal
international organizations. They frequently involve actors other
than formal state representatives. In the realm of finance, health,
security, or the environment, international lawmaking is
increasingly 'informal': It takes place in networks or loosely
organized fora; it involves a multitude of stakeholders including
regulators, experts, professional organizations and other non-state
actors; it leads to guidelines, standards or best practices. This
book critically assesses the concept of informal international
lawmaking, its legal nature, and impact at the national and
international level. It examines whether it is on the rise, as is
often claimed, and if so, what the implications of this are. It
addresses what actors are involved in its creation, the processes
utilized, and the informal output produced. The book frames
informal international lawmaking around three axes: output
informality (novel types of norms), process informality
(norm-making in networks outside international organizations), and
actor informality (the involvement of public agencies and
regulators, private actors, and international organizations).
Fundamentally, the book is concerned with whether this informality
causes problems in terms of keeping transnational lawmaking
accountable. By empirically analysing domestic processes of norm
elaboration and implementation, the book addresses the key question
of how to benefit from the effectiveness of informal international
lawmaking without jeopardizing the accountability necessary in the
process of making law.
