Last century was significant for the public international law, which has developed rapidly, bringing some improvements regarding protecting human right despite the fact, it faces huge challenges regarding its effectivity. Through descriptive, normative and critical methods of research the article attempts to show, that there is a need for paradigm change in order to make public international law more effective. But what should be a new paradigm? What can increase the effectivity of the public international law? To answer these questions, the detailed inspection of the term of effectivity, as well as creation and the enforcement processes of the public international law norms is needed. Research shows common consent of states, legitimate constitutive act, authority as well as appropriate enforcement are pillars, based on which the public international law can uphold its effect. However, it will take some time.

Skotland etablerer i 2022 en international repræsentation i København, men spørgsmålet er, hvad der kan forventes af den. Gennem interviews med skotske repræsentanter har vi undersøgt, hvordan Skotland er repræsenteret som en subnational aktør qua deres internationale repræsentationer. Vi benytter denne viden til at fremsætte kvalificerede forventninger til den kommende repræsentation i København. På baggrund af vores data har vi udarbejdet en model kaldet "The Scottish model of efficient paradiplomacy", der skitserer de elementer, vi finder karakteristisk for skotsk paradiplomati. I fremtiden vil der være både en britisk- og skotsk repræsentation i København. Hertil anbefaler vi, at Danmark engagerer sig diplomatisk med begge disse repræsentationer og dermed undlader at tage stilling til deres komplekse indbyrdes forhold.

We introduce the topic of this Special Issue on the "Role of Financial and Legal Institutions in International Governance", with a particular emphasis on a notion of "international mobility of corporate governance". Our discussion places the Special Issue at the intersection of law, finance, and international business, with a focus on the contexts of foreign investors and directors. Country-level legal and regulatory institutions facilitate foreign ownership, foreign directors, raising external financial capital, and international M&A activity. The interplay between the impact of foreign ownership and foreign directors on firm governance and performance depends on international differences in formal/regulatory institutions. In addition to legal conditions, informal institutions such as political connections also shape the economic value of foreign ownership and foreign directors. We highlight key papers in the literature, provide an overview of the new papers in this Special Issue, and offer suggestions for future research.
