GLOBALIZATION OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS AND ITS IMPACT ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF INTERNATIONAL LAW

Abstract

The article examines the evolution of international law and international relations in the context of globalization. At the same time this process encounters difficulties and contradictions observed by the authors. The article discusses new problems of international law which arise from globalization. This article is an attempt to study the relationship between international law and international relations, taking into account national and international aspects. Drastic changes in the economic, political, military and environmental spheres had a major impact on both the state and the relationships between them. In recent decades, against the background of global concerns and challenges of the booming cross-border context, new forms of cooperation can be observed. In the context of globalization the functions of international law, currently supplemented with a commercial function, have also changed. In addition, the article considers a new direction of development of international law - international development law. The international documents in which it was embodied are studied. The authors come to the conclusion that the all-encompassing nature of globalization has influenced primarily state sovereignty characteristics and preconditions the need to further improve international legal norms and institutions.
