INFLUENCE OF GLOBALIZATION ON THE LAW SYSTEMS

Abstract

The legal issues compared by litigants to the phenomenon of globalization include the
penetration of global juridical values into the national law systems to which they do not
traditionally belong and thus, we may speak of the globalization of law. Globalization, a
phenomenon that practically extends the communication bridges among states also results in
the fact that the internal legal order expands towards a new legal order, namely a global
legal order. In this context, the modernization and compatibility of the legal systems through
the transfer of law is inevitable, a fact that might mean the total or partial replacement of a
law system which proves to be out of date or obsolete by a system or parts of it assumed to be
somehow superior and healthier and aiming at enriching or treating such system so as to
ensure the compatibility of an internal legal system to the regional and inevitably the
international one. In these conditions, the science of law exceeds the borders and the internal
organization rules of a certain state may be useful in other state and vice-versa.
