Schauer: On the Relationship between International Law and International Constitutionalism

Frederick Schauer (Univ. of Virginia - Law) has published On the Relationship between International Law and International Constitutionalism (Vienna Journal on International Constitutional Law, Vol. 11, no. 1, 2017). Here's the abstract:
In some circles the idea of international constitutionalism, or international constitutional law, appears to provoke a considerable and perhaps unexpected degree of resistance, and indeed animosity. My goal on this occasion is to try to figure out why this attitude of scorn might exist, and in the process also to say something about the relationship between international law and international constitutionalism.
