Introduction

The principles of lawfulness and the rule of Law are world widely considered as a condition to legitimacy and stability within the constitutional democracies. Notwithstanding, throughout last decades of the last century, these principles have been immersed into an environment of increasing institutional complexity, which yield them to extraordinary pressures. This affects the theory and praxis of constitutional democracies and obliges to review the normative frame from which the democratization processes are being analyzed. Within the specific field of the reflection on Law, the Workshop entitled as “The changing role of law in the age of supra- and transnational governance” aims to study a series of new realities, closely related to these transformations, such as the new forms of governance, the new legal instruments of soft-law and the new instances of rule production.

This Workshop aims to cover an ensemble of institutional facts, within a national and inter-national scope, and is expected to have a relevant impact on the forms of lawfulness or, more precisely, on the modalities of restructuring the legal systems which are more and more complex. The analysis of the dimensions of the change of contemporary law provides the essential information to understand the institutional realities that underlie the processes of the strengthening and consolidation of democracy.
