The Oxford Handbook of Transnational Law offers a unique and
unparalleled treatment and presentation in the field of
Transnational Law that has become one of the most intriguing and
innovative developments in legal doctrine, scholarship, theory, and
practice today. This in itself constitutes an ambitious editorial
project, not only within law and legal doctrine, but also with
regard to an increasing interest in an interdisciplinary engagement
of law with social sciences - including sociology, anthropology,
political science, geography, and political theory. Closely tied
into the substantive transformation that many legal fields are
undergoing is the observation that many of these developments are
driven by changes in an increasingly global legal practice today.
The concept then, of 'transnational law' aims at capturing the
distinctly border- crossing nature even of those legal fields which
had for the longest been time been seen as having merely 'domestic'
relevance. This shift also requires a conscious effort among law
school classroom instructors, casebook authors, and curriculum
reformers to adapt their teaching content to these circumstances.
As the authors of this Handbook make clear, this adaptation
requires a close dialogue between a scholarly investigation into
the transnational 'concept of law' and the challenges faced by
practicing lawyers, be that as solicitor, in-house counsel, as
judges, or as bureaucrats in a globalized regulatory and
socio-economic environment. While the main thrust is on the
transnationalization of legal doctrine and legal theory, with a
considerable contribution from and engagement with social sciences,
the Handbook features numerous reflections on the relationship
between transnational law and legal practice.
