Today’s international relations feature a paradox. On the one hand, there is an increase in references to constitutional norms and processes across global regions and in a range of international organizations. On the other hand, the interpretation of international law is frequently subject to controversy. In the global realm, an ever-broader range of ‘public’ and ‘private’ actors with different levels of authority and legitimacy intervene into these processes. Against the background of diverse and, more often than not, divergent, ‘global’ and ‘local’ background knowledges, the meaning of corresponding norms is highly contested. Examples ranging from decisions of the United Nations Security Council or domestic courts to locally operating human rights advocacy groups indicate that when international norms are applied, practice faces the need to “translate” and re-contextualize norms in “productive” ways.
Research on norms suffers from being divided through disciplinary boundaries, with scholars sometimes using different vocabularies. Starting from the interface between global governance, constitutionalism, and world society approaches, the lecture series on “Con-testation, Knowledge, Practice” aims to stimulate ‘interdisciplinary encounters” by featuring speakers with different disciplinary backgrounds in order to highlight the paradoxical constellations of global normativity.
