In 1956, ICJ judge Philip Jessup highlighted the gaps between
private and public international law and the need to adapt the law
to border-crossing problems. Today, sixty years later, we still ask
what role transnational law can play in a deeply divided,
post-colonial world, where multinationals hold more power and more
assets than many nation states. In searching for suitable answers
to pressing legal problems such as climate change law, security,
poverty and inequality, questions of representation, enforcement,
accountability and legitimacy become newly entangled. As public and
private, domestic and international actors compete for regulatory
authority, spaces for political legitimacy have become fragmented
and the state's exclusivist claim to be law's harbinger and place
of origin under attack. Against this background, transnational law
emerges as a conceptual framework and method laboratory for a
critical reflection on the forms, fora and processes of law making
and law contestation today.
