A quote by Professor Petersmann - European University Institute

 

"The history of constitutionalism suggests that the needed “constitutionalization” of international economic law depends on “struggles for human rights” by citizens, civil society, parliaments and courts against the never-ending abuses of private and public power by self-interested rulers."

Constitutional Nationalism to Multilevel Constitutionalism in  International Economic Law? , see conclusion.
