The Law Behind Rule of Law Transfers: On Rule Based Interactions of Legal Orders in a Globalized World (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783848757169)

Transfers of rule of law between legal systems have been discussed extensively in academia. Yet, so far, scholarship has predominantly centered around the issue's socio-political dimensions. The volume departs from these common scholarly paths and assesses rule of law transfers as a legal phenomenon. Its analytical perspective assumes that the process of transferring the rule of law does not only concern a legal concept but also holds a legal dimension itself. Against this backdrop, the volume features eight distinct contributions, introducing and applying the said perspective. They approach the topic from diverse angles, covering a wide range of legal fields, including EU law, public international law, international human rights law, international criminal law, international humanitarian law and international economic law - with each contribution succeeding in highlighting the relevance of "the law behind rule of law transfers".
