Multilateralism has been a foundation for international cooperation, but recent crises indicate an acceleration of the disintegration of the multilateral system.

Over the past several decades, multilateralism has been a cornerstone of international cooperation. After the Second World War, the United States and Western Europe championed it, and it expanded into a broader global system of governance with the end of the Cold War. However, a growing number of states are dissatisfied with the existing multilateral arrangements, both in terms of norms and institutions. The great powers view unilateral and bilateral strategies, which maximize their political leverage rather than diluting it in multilateral forums, as more effective ways for controlling the course of international affairs.
The signs of the crisis have been visible for some time, but recent crises, such as Brexit, growing resistance on the part of states to international monitoring of compliance, and the radical change in US foreign policy during the presidency of Donald Trump, which saw the US withdraw from several multilateral agreements (e.g., the Iran Nuclear Deal and the Paris Agreement), leave some international organizations or bodies (e.g., the United Nations Human Rights Council or the World Health Organization), or paralyze others (e.g., the World Trade Organization (WTO)), indicate an acceleration of the ongoing disintegration of the multilateral system.
To address the debate surrounding the crisis of multilateralism and the related transformation of the underlying international legal order, The Crisis of Multilateral Legal Order analyzes selected aspects of the current crisis from the perspective of public international law to identify the nature of the crisis, its dynamics, and implications.
