Global lawmaking by international organizations holds the potential
for enormous influence over world trade and national economies.
Representatives from states, industries, and professions produce
laws for worldwide adoption in an effort to alter state lawmaking
and commercial behaviors, whether of giant multi-national
corporations or micro, small and medium-sized businesses. Who makes
that law and who benefits affects all states and all market
players. Global Lawmakers offers the first extensive empirical
study of commercial lawmaking within the United Nations. It shows
who makes law for the world, how they make it, and who comes out
ahead. Using extensive and unique data, the book investigates three
episodes of lawmaking between the late 1990s and 2012. Through its
original socio-legal orientation, it reveals dynamics of
competition, cooperation and competitive cooperation within and
between international organizations, including the UN, World Bank,
IMF and UNIDROIT, as these IOs craft international laws. Global
Lawmakers proposes an original theory of international
organizations that seek to construct transnational legal orders
within social ecologies of lawmaking. The book concludes with an
appraisal of creative global governance by the UN in international
commerce over the past fifty years and examines prospective
challenges for the twenty-first century.
