This book provides a comprehensive introduction to global legal
thought. It argues that economic globalization and digitalization
have induced significant insecurity about the future of human
social organization. While traditional international law as a
system based on the consent of national states is in the process
of rapid adaptation to its new social preconditions, a variety of
transnational regulatory levels compete for legal authority. In
this process of change, there is more need than ever to guide the
theoretical understanding because academic concepts have a
crucial influence on the emerging practice of global law. This
book highlights which choices are available and argues that
global law requires taking a stand in mutually irreconcilable
choices.
