| Résumé : | Globalization has enabled the emergence and rise of new normative forms and institutions that, in practice, have assumed the functions of global governance. These new norms have not gone unnoticed by jurists. There are several authors and schools of thought which have used this phenome-non to develop theories that recurrently lie under the labels of "global law" or "transnational law". Therefore, this article has as its main objective the mapping of the main theories of global law in debate, besides presenting, briefly, the pragmatic approach that we defend at the Perelman Center for Philosophy of Law. Next, we will analyze how this approach can be applied to environmental law, through the example of the fight against global warming. And finally, we will argue that global law, at least in its pragmatic version, represents an adequate theoretical framework for thinking about environmental law. |
