Philosophy:Law without the state
From HandWiki
Law without the state (also called transnational stateless law, stateless law, or private legal orderings) is law made primarily outside of the power of a state. Such law may be established in several ways:
- It may emerge in systems such as existed in feudal Europe prior to the emergence of the modern nation state with the treaty of Westphalia.[1][2]
- It can be established as customary law such as that practiced by indigenous communities.[3][4]
- Non-state actors may create it,[5][6] for instance in the form of "soft law".
- According to various anarchist theories, it could result from how a society would organize itself without formal government.[7]
