Abstract

According to an increasingly strengthening idea in the international law scholarship, traditional institutions and instruments of international law are now far from meeting the needs and challenges of our day, and they need to be reformed or replaced by new ones. This is also true for national laws. Domestic legal systems suffer from various obstacles in implementing jurisdiction over entities that operate beyond national borders. On the other side, public law and international law have already been in a transformative process through new norms, new forms and new actors. The catalyst of both challenges and transformation arises as a common phenomenon: globalization. Globalization, as Sands argues, goes hand in hand with three other phenomena of our era, namely technological innovations, democratization, and privatization.

    Ibid., 489. As a matter of fact, transnational space is based on its own logic, independent from international law, and it appears as a third layer of “social pattern-reproduction” in addition to modern statehood and feudal structures in the evolution process of modern states. This means that the transnational realm developed hand in hand with the modern statehood, instead of a model of “zero-sum relationship.” Poul Kjaer, Constitutionalism in the Global Realm: A Sociological Approach (London: Routledge, 2014), 1-2, 32. What is meant by “transnationalization of law” here is indeed to be seen as a continuance of this relationship, not a self-evident development in international relations.

    However, it is of note that academic works that explain this transformation aggregately are rare, since the studies on law and globalization rather concern some contextual issues.

    The concept of “network” focused here is articulated in different forms by some scholars: Such as “Global Assemblages” (Saskia Sassen), “Self-contained Regimes” (Gunther Teubner). However, this does not mean that the interpretation of this fact by these scholars is entirely the same, and they trigger the same points. Above all, the network concept of Slaughter is somewhat confined to the transgovernmental networks that stem from the disaggregation of state. In other examples, the concept of network is employed to explain social, cultural, economic and political relations between different novel forms of relationships within a broader span.

    Global governance is a term that is completely different from the world government. Governance is simply “the processes and institutions, both formal and informal, that guide and restrain the collective activities of a group.” Governance is not only conducted by governments and international organizations, but it also includes private firms and non-governmental organizations, in some cases without a governmental authority.
