Details

This textbook provides a modern introduction to international economic law by focusing on the most complex legal problems of economic globalisation. Part I explains the foundations, scope and sources of international economic law. Part II gives a thorough overview of multilevel trade and investment regulation and related adjudication. Part III elaborates topical business problems of the global economy, such as sovereign debt restructuring, international taxation, sovereign wealth funds, green energy investments and performance requirements, rules of origin and trademark regulations, anti-dumping duties, countervailing duties and other ‘trade remedies’. Part IV analyses related public policy problems like international economic migrations, health regulations limiting international economic transactions, international economic law rules governing sanitation and water services provided by multinational companies, and governmental protection of ‘public morality’ in international economic law, for instance by restricting imports of certain goods and services that offend prevailing moral views in the importing country.
