Centre for Law, Regulation and Governance of the Global Economy (GLOBE)

Description

The Centre for Law, Regulation and Governance of the Global Economy (GLOBE), initiated in 2014, is an esteemed research and public engagement hub situated within the University of Warwick's School of Law. Dedicated to investigating the intricate facets of global economic law, regulation, and governance, the Warwick Law School has a robust tradition in this field. Both staff and postgraduate researchers undertake theoretical, empirical, and doctrinal scholarship across various disciplines, scrutinising the ties between law, regulatory regimes, and international economic affairs' governance structures. The Centre, featuring a diverse academic and practical orientation, acts as a catalyst, promoting and streamlining research and policy-related activities. It also encourages interaction, discussion, and collaboration amongst Warwick researchers, and between Warwick and external scholars, as well as stakeholders from various organisations and institutions across the UK and globally.

Endorsing Warwick Law School's contextual and interdisciplinary approach, the Centre evaluates substantive law, policy, and regulation questions within broader socio-economic and political contexts. Its interests span international trade law, comparative private law, international business transactions, international and comparative tax law, global intellectual property rights, natural resources law, environmental law, sustainable development, financial regulation, company law, corporate governance, global competition law, and international arbitration. The Centre invites collaboration from both Warwick and external scholars involved in analogous research domains.
