La concurrence des normes globales

Benoît Frydman

Revue internationale de droit économique, 2018, vol. t. XXXII, issue 3, 293-304

Abstract: Traditionally, it is understood that state sovereignty is manifested mainly through law. This theory is being challenged by current changes in the global market. The paper exemplifies how important it is to rethink the law in a global environment. To do so, it identifies types of regulation that would either challenge or back existing state territorial regulation. Three elements that can operate as fulcrums or levers in global law are examined (forum shopping, corporate social responsibility, and technical standards), as well as the latest claims they have given rise to in courts. The paper shows how these fulcrums can be used to help promote greater justice in the market economy.
