The 21st Century has witnessed the resurgence and refinement of ideas about "transnational law" as a family of approaches to the intertwined relations of domestic and international, local and global, public and private, state and non-state, and soft and hard law. Peer Zumbansen has been at the very forefront of this new scholarship for going on two decades, so it is only fitting that he has pulled together this ambitious new Oxford Handbook. It will be, from day one, an influential reference point of first recourse.
Peer Zumbansen is the inaugural Professor of Business Law at McGill University, Faculty of Law. From 2014-2020, he held the Inaugural Chair in Transnational Law at King's College London and served as Founding Director of the Transnational Law Institute, and before that held a Canada Research Chair at Osgoode Hall Law School in Toronto. He is co-author of Rough Consensus and Running Code: A Theory of Transnational Private Law (2010, with G.P. Calliess) and editor of The Many Lives of Transnational Law: Critical Engagements with Jessup's Bold Proposal (2020).
