Law-Making by International Organizations
Abstract
The purpose and objectives of the article are to: analyze the provisions of soviet and post-soviet international legal doctrine in terms of participation of international organizations in the process of international lawmaking; study of approaches to lawmaking of international organizations, developed in Western jurisprudence. Methodology. On the basis of comparative law, system, epistemological, phenomenological and other methods revealed the features of the legal personality of international organizations, primarily as participants in the international law-making process, the main approaches to their definition, differences in the dimensions of (post) Soviet and Western legal science. Scientific novelty. The ability of an international intergovernmental organization to create domestic law has not always been considered in Soviet and domestic science as evidence of the organization’s participation in the process of international lawmaking. At the same time, in Western doctrine, the law-making of international intergovernmental organizations is mostly interpreted in the light of the theory of the principal-agent and the functional approach. International non-governmental organizations are equally not recognized as direct participants in international lawmaking in both Western and (post) Soviet jurisprudence. Conclusions. The legal personality of modern international intergovernmental organizations demonstrates a number of problematic aspects that require proper study, comprehensive research. Foreign legal scholars pay less attention to the activities of international intergovernmental organizations in the framework of the founding acts and are more positive about leaving them, and in the post-Soviet space the attitude to exceeding the amount of rule-making competence is more critical.
Keywords: international organizations; intergovernmental organizations; non-governmental organizations international law-making; law of international organizations.
