Globalisation and the Rule of Law reassesses the idea of the 'rule
of law' within the present complex and increasingly
internationalized environment. There have been many books studying
the phenomenon of globalization and its economic, social or
cultural consequences. This book, however, is the first to relate
globalization exclusively to law. It examines the impact of
globalization upon the rule of law, a fundamental value within
liberal democratic sovereign states.
The book opens with three chapters discussing the theory of the
rule of law and its necessary reconceptualization in a global
environment. Then, in three sections considering global trade,
security and human rights, it proposes new ways of thinking about
global law and its application in new and existing institutions of
global governance. Contributors include top-flight academics,
politicians and judges, making this book significant and relevant
in both jurisprudential theory and political practice.
