Summary
This interdisciplinary book explores the concept of convergence of the
EU with the global legal order. It captures the actions, law-making and
practice of the EU as a cutting-edge actor in the world promoting
convergence 'against the grain'. In a dynamic 'twist' the book uses
methodology to reflect upon some of the most dramatically changing
dimensions of current global affairs.
Questions explored
include: who and what are the subjects and objects of convergence as to
the EU and the world? How do 'court-centric' and less 'court-centric'
approaches differ? Can we use political science and international
relations as 'service tools'?
Four key themes are probed:
- framing EU convergence;
- global trade against convergence;
- the EU as the exceptional internationalist; and
- positioning convergence through methodology.
