Abstract
The aim of this article is to analyse the evolution of international economic law and its fundamental principles. It will examine the current framework of international economic law and the efforts made to regulate international economic relations between states as part of an attempt to establish a global order. It will begin by surveying efforts made prior to the establishment of the UN, and will then focus on developments that have taken place since the establishment of the UN. The objective of the article is to provide a comprehensive and critical appraisal of the law developed to govern economic relations between different states, and between states and private economic actors such as multinational enterprises.
