The volume, therefore, departs from common scholarly paths and intends to assess and explain rule of law transfers as a legal phenomenon.

Four arguments will be developed: First, that there exists a plurality of state and non-state legal orders which interact on a global scale (A.). Second, that one particular way of such interaction is the transfer of legal items between legal orders (B.).Third, that the rule of law, as a fundamental legal concept, is such an item and subject to legal transfers (C.).
