Introduction Geopolitics and legitimacy in a globalized world

Part I. History : international order, law, and organizations in a Eurocentric world. A European order : from Christendom to the League

A leadership-based international system is built and adapts : from World War II and Its horrors to judicialized international law, financial crisis, and war

Geoeconomics within geopolitics : china and the west today, and scenarios for tomorrow

Part II. Framework : international institutions, regimes, organizations, and society. International policy coordination and cooperation : Humean conventions and norms

Institutions for cooperation : equilibria, regimes, and organizations

Order, system, and society : from self-enforcing order to an international society of designed substantive law?

Part III. Geopolitics With geoeconomics : order, "civilizational" tensions, and a dislocated international system. Varieties of order and system : the contingent societal stability of an institutionalized hierarchy with American European roots

Rising powers, norms, and geopolitics : party-led China's self-identity and US political nativism as risks to system and order

Wishful thinking : policy robustness, resilience, and legitimacy

Part IV. Legitimacy : values and principles for international order and system. Sovereignty and the globalization trilemma : universalist versus pluralist international law and system in a world of civilizational states

Legitimacy and legitimation : a Humean-Williamsian framework

Political realism in international relations : order versus system in a world of concentric legitimation circles

Principles for constitutional democracies legitimately delegating to international organizations

Part V. Applications : reforms to the international economic system during shifting geopolitics. Legitimacy for a fragile international economic system facing fractured geopolitics

The International Monetary Fund and the international monetary order : an exercise in excessive discretion with missing regimes?

The World Trade Organization and the system for international trade : is judicialized universalism unsustainable because illegitimate?

Preferential trade pacts and bilateral investment treaties : security first, or globalization via mimesis?

Basel and the international financial system : are the tower's denizens too powerful?

Conclusions Global discord : between disagreement and conflict

Appendix. Principles for constitutional democracies participating and delegating in international system.
