It explains the need for a 'new philosophy of international law' in order to protect human rights and PGs more effectively and more legitimately. 'Constitutional approaches' are justified by the universal recognition of human rights and by the need to protect 'human rights', 'rule of law', 'democracy' and other 'principles of justice' that are used in national, regional and UN legal systems as indeterminate legal concepts. The study describes and criticizes the legal methodology problems of 'disconnected' governance in UN, GATT and WTO institutions as well as in certain areas of the external relations of the EU (like transatlantic free trade agreements). Based on 40 years of practical experiences of the author in German, European, UN, GATT and WTO governance institutions and of simultaneous academic teaching, this study develops five propositions for constituting, limiting, regulating and justifying multilevel governance for the benefit of citizens and their constitutional rights as 'constituent powers', 'democratic principals' and main 'republican actors', who must hold multilevel governance institutions and their limited 'constituted powers' legally, democratically and judicially more accountable 606 $aConstitutional law 606 $aInternational and municipal law$xPolitical aspects 606 $aInternational law and human rights 606 $aInternational organization 606 $aLaw and globalization 606 $2Public international law 615 0$aConstitutional law. 615 0$aInternational and municipal law$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aInternational law and human rights. 615 0$aInternational organization. 615 0$aLaw and globalization. 676 $a342/.042 700 $aPetersmann$b Ernst-Ulrich$0280890 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910826650403321 996 $aMultilevel constitutionalism for multilevel governance of public goods$93933006 997 $aUNINA
