Legal Monitoring of Global Legal Systems
Abstract
Abstract. The article is devoted to the analysis of the regulatory and legal prerequisites for conducting legal monitoring of global legal systems. In the course of the study, the author analyzes the domestic regulatory and legal framework and doctrinal developments regarding legal systems, legal monitoring, and globalization. Attention is paid to the ability of domestic regulatory and legal acts to ensure the legal monitoring of global legal systems. According to the results of the study, the author found out that in Ukraine, the instruments for implementing legal monitoring are oriented more towards monitoring the national legal system than the legal monitoring of the system of foreign legal order. Moreover, the issue of ensuring legal monitoring of "global legal systems" can be carried out under the national legal order, but to the extent permitted by regulatory and legal documents. This, in the author’s opinion, may mean the inability to fully reflect the legal monitoring map of global legal systems, which will pose risks for a full assessment of the effectiveness of a particular legal system. The author of the study identified the main areas of legal monitoring of global legal systems and classified the latter.
Analyzing the raised problem of the global legal space on which legal systems are based, the author proposes to classify systems into those that belong to global legal systems ("globalizing", as a result of the influence of internal factors contained in the legal system), and those that are globalized as a result of the influence of external factors. The first, in the author’s opinion, are inherent in strong states and state-political formations. Instead, the author believes that under such circumstances, the People’s Republic of China, the European Union, the United States of America, etc. can be distinguished. That is, those legal systems that are characterized by institutions capable of absorbing other legal systems, correcting them, while extending their social, political, military influence on other legal systems, in fact, which is especially relevant, creating formulas for law-making processes for globalized legal systems.
Keywords: legal monitoring; legal system; globalization; global legal systems.
