CHAPTER 12: THE GLOBALIZATION OF LAW 
——————————————————————————————————————————————
Overview

Theorizing Law and Globalization 

“The globalization of law presents a special challenge to scholarship on law because the degree of interlinking between national or otherwise local and global or otherwise border-transcending structures and processes has steadily been increasing in recent years. What then does jurisdictional sovereignty mean in the global village?” (p.252)
Global Legality: From Lawmaking to Law Speaking 
"Turning to sociological research on the globalization of law, empirical studies have been devoted to the entire range of legal processes, extending from the creation of global norms over their administration in the courts and through other means of resolution, including the activities of legal professionals, to the global dimensions of enforcement and social control." (p.255)
Global Control: The Dynamics of World Policing 
“...the globalization of social control in matters of crime and deviance includes a multitude of global developments that are not related to violations of international norms but involve the control of the border-crossing dimensions of violations of national legal regimes...” (p.264)
