Zusammenfassung:Transnational merchant law, which is mistakenly regarded in purely technical and apolitical terms, is a central mediator of domestic and global political/legal orders. By engaging with literature in international law, international relations and international political economy, this 2003 book develops the conceptual and theoretical foundations for analyzing the political significance of international economic law.

The book makes a sustained and comprehensive analysis of transnational merchant law and offers a radical critique of global capitalism
