Developing the Publicness of Public International Law: Towards a Legal Framework for Global Governance Activities

Atores Do Conhecimento E a Construção De Novos Cenários De Governança: O Caso Da Direção-Geral De Educação E Cultura Da Comissão Europeia

“…Further on, important insights and perspectives on indicators in particular come from STS (BOWKER; STAR, 1999;LAMPLAND;STARR, 2009;LATOUR, 1987;SAETNAN;LOMELL;HAMMEL, 2011), including actor network theory (LATOUR, 2005). Finally, there is a small but growing body of studies relating to specific uses of indicators and quantification in transnational governance contexts (BOGDANDY; DANN; GOLDMANN, 2008;PALAN, 2006;MARTENS, 2007;FOUGNER, 2008;BHUTA, 2012).…”

Value of Public Administration Management to International Relations: Scaffolding an Inter-Disciplinary Research Agenda

“…Will the same global outcomes be achieved if international property rights were secured by international rule of law (and enforced by international government/global governance)? On this note, the international law debate on transiting Public International Law into International Public Law as a legal framework for the exercise of International Public Authority to support Global Governance is a useful area for further research (von Bogdandy, Dann, & Goldmann, 2008;Kadelbach, 2009;Vezke, 2010).…”

Transnational Comparisons: Theory and Practice of Comparative Law as a Critique of Global Governance

“…The 'emergence of private authority in global governance' 82 -as expressed in a variety of areas 83 including standardization 84 and the lex mercatoria 85 -constitutes a considerable challenge for constitutional thought. These regulatory regimes in the transnational arena reflect, on the one hand, on a fundamentally changed role of the state in the exercise of 'public' authority 86 , the origins of which have to be seen, firstly, in a transformation of the inter-national context 87 and in the inner-state shift 'from government to governance.' 88 Secondly, these changes are associated with the emergence of normmaking processes, institutions of rule creation, implementation and adjudication which scholars are struggling to fully scrutinize.…”

“…As GAL continues to become more sophisticated, not least due to the impulses and critique it receives from different sides, most prominently perhaps critical international law scholarship 120 and the Third World Approaches to International Law, 121 its current blindness to national administrative law histories will need to be addressed -sooner rather than later. The still outstanding face-to-face dialogue and reciprocal engagement between the original GAL concept on the one hand and the 'Public Authority' project under the auspices of the Max Planck Institute for International Law in Heidelberg, 122 on the other, is telling in that regard. Meanwhile, some of its most insightful critics have been pointing to the ghosts in the architecture, forcefully bringing to light the problematic tensions between a de-nationalized construction of an administrative governance framework on the one hand and the intricate and concrete histories of this very governance on the ground.…”
