International economic law

"International economic law" is an increasingly seminal field of international law that involves the regulation and conduct of states, international organizations, and private firms operating in the international economic arena.[1] As such, international economic law encompasses a broad range of disciplines touching on public international law,[2] private international law,[3] and domestic law applicable to international business transactions.[4]

For several decades, international economic law was most often associated with international trade, largely due to the fact that trade had developed the most mature multilateral legal institutions (e.g. the GATT and later WTO) for governing international commerce.

Decisions in one area, such as tax or financial regulation, can impact the transmission of monetary policy, which can, in turn, impact the effectiveness or operation of a trade regime, and vice versa. Consequently, a wide range of notable governmental and intergovernmental organizations are involved in formulating international economic law and policy. Among the most important are:

Additionally, a number of think tanks and not-for-profit organizations contribute to scholarship on international economic law, including:[31]
