There can be little doubt that a group of prominent and influential
organizations lie at the heart of international economic law (IEL). These
include the Bretton Woods institutions, regional development banks and
economic organizations, and various specialized global institutions primarily
active in norm generation. This volume possesses the unique distinction of
presenting the perspectives – both institutional and personal – of legal
counsels in some key international economic organizations regarding their work
and the role of law within the framework of their organizations, with
particular attention to the conditions within which they can optimally
contribute to the development of IEL. This last consideration is emphasized in
three ‘external’ academic perspectives that focus mainly on what the role of
counsels in international economic organizations ought to be.
Each first-hand perspective focuses on counsel’s involvement in such aspects
of IEL as the following:
-
;providing internal advice on the law of the organization;
-
;assisting members with respect to domestic institutions and law in the
economic sphere;
-
;to what extent (if any) legal counsels are normally involved in policy making
for issues that are not strictly of a legal nature;
-
;intellectual contributions both to the development of international law and
the dissemination and exchange of legal knowledge among various stakeholders;
-
;ethical challenges and response to possible conflicts of interests;
-
;generation of soft law economic instruments;
-
;legal issues on replenishment of resources for development funding;
-
;setting of internationally recognized standards or best practices for
commercial and financial legislation;
-
;informal networks of lawyers and lawyer functions which cut across
institutional and territorial boundaries; and
-
;negotiation and management of free trade agreements from a legal perspective.
In the opinions proffered, in the preoccupations shared, indeed even in the
silence of omissions, these contributions by distinguished key practitioners
from major representative organizations that play a role in the international
economic system will be warmly welcomed by the community of scholars,
policymakers and practitioners concerned with international economic law.
