| Research Abstract |
Today, some talk about the "constitutionalization" of international economic law, which has obtained an autonomous normative scheme that virtually does away with the decentralized regulatory powers of national authorities. However, the autonomous development of international economic law is challenged by efforts to restore the margin of national discretion. The present research focuses on the increased tensions between these centripetal and centrifugal forces, and suggests that the concept of constitutionalization itself should be reformulated. We could utilize the term for referring to the situation where the relevant international bodies are required to legitimate their extensive authorities in relation to other polities by balancing a variety of integrating and decentralizing elements appropriately. Such a perspective would set forth a renewed criterion for evaluating the relationship between international legal disciplines and national sovereign authorities.
