Summary
Summarising the main arguments of the book, the conclusions also put into relief the importance of spatial-conceptual approach to the study of international law. If from the Hobbesian perspective international order is not really law, Leibnizian concept of normativity grounded in the cognitive dimension underpined by the relational space as a logical grounding pushes international scholars to think the regulation at the global level in more divrse ways. However, the cognitive dimension of normativity remains yet to be fully explored.
