Although there have always been some scholars in International Political Economy (IPE), who have acknowledged the importance of (international) law, even in recent writing on global governance the actuality of legal structures is often unexamined, and the valorisation of the ‘rule of law’ accepted relatively uncritically. Thus, while certainly there has been a frequent examination of parts of the global legal regime (international law in various sectors, or issue areas) few if any scholars have attempted a more general account of the ‘rule of law’ as it relates to IPE. This article develops a research agenda for establishing a more robust and detailed account of law in IPE, focussing on the ‘rule of law’ as a crucial entry point for IPE-based analysis to fruitfully engage with legal scholars. The article begins to lay the ground work for a multi-disciplinary account of the international rule of law, that would question the sometime casual reification of law, and seek to understand why increasingly the ‘rule of law’ is seen as a master value of the global system.
