Inhaltsangabe

This book offers a critical analysis of the role that international economic law plays in the creation and maintenance of global power relations. By examining the evolution of merchant law it argues that private interests have governed global economic relations through a little understood evolving legal order.

'... a very valuable step towards embracing a more comprehensive view of the complexity of developments in national, international and transnational law ... Private Power and Global Authority deserves to be highlighted in many respects ... a much needed study in internal relations. It is, in fact, more precisely a crucial report on international affairs.' EJIL
