Zusammenfassung
Transnational Legal Orders offers an empirically grounded theory that reframes the study of law and society. Taking an original approach to the emergence of legal orders beyond nation-states, it shows how they originate, where they compete and cooperate, and how they settle on institutions that legally order fundamental economic and social behaviors that transcend national borders.
