Global Governance and the Rule of Law in Poland and Abroad

Global governance is understood as “a dynamic process in which legal, political and economical arrangements unleash interests, change the balance of force, and lead to further reinvention of the governance scheme itself.”1 We need to come up with innovative approaches to global policy in the face of a legal and institutional architecture manifestly ill-equipped to address our most urgent global challenges.

Global governance is understood as “a dynamic process in which legal, political and economical arrangements unleash interests, change the balance of force, and lead to further reinvention of the governance scheme itself.” We need to come up with innovative approaches to global policy in the face of a legal and institutional architecture manifestly ill-equipped to address our most urgent global challenges. Poverty, conflict, injustice and inequality are also legal and institutional regimes that we can study on the basis of the Polish legal and political system taking the global order as a reference point. Present challenges to the liberal legal order in Poland and in the Western countries motivates us to think to present renewed architecture of the national and international legal order. Global governance research explores the ways in which they are reproduced and what might be done in response to propose a useful de lege ferenda approach that could be reflected upon by the legislators . The aim of the course is to provide a platform for new thinking about Polish legal order and international legal and institutional arrangements in the world of an urgent need for responsibility for the future. It also aims to present what role can Poland and Europe play in this process. Is global governance possible? Is wider responsibility possible?
