Globalisation and Legal Theory by William Twining, published by Butterworths in March 2000, is a scholarly work comprising eight linked essays that advocate for a revival of general jurisprudence in light of globalisation challenges.

This work aims to contribute to the discourse on law and jurisprudence, particularly within the English-speaking world, as it navigates the complexities of the new millennium.
Official synopsis Publisher
This work brings together eight linked essays which make the case for a revival of general jurisprudence in response to the challenges of globalisation, explores how far the heritage of Anglo-American jurisprudence and comparative law is adequate to meeting the challenges, and puts forward an agenda for general jurisprudence and comparative law, especially in the English-speaking world in the first ten or twenty years of the millennium. The book is traditional in focussing on the mainstream of Anglo-American intellectual heritage and moderately radical in identifying the need for rethinking basic issues and putting forward a series of provocative propositions as a basis for discussion.
