ABSTRACT
Rémi Bachand takes on the challenging task of providing some critical thoughts on the American legal scholarship. Although the wide diversity of approaches to non-state actors taken in the American legal scholarship does not allow any comprehensive account, he identifies some important scholarly projects and their distinctive takes on non-state actors. Although not ignoring Anne-Marie Slaughter’s government networks studies or Benedict Kingsbury’s global administrative law, particular mention is made of New Haven, the critical studies inspired by David Kennedy as well as Third World Approaches. In doing so, Rémi Bachand emphasizes the great heterogeneity of the American legal scholarship.
