Abstract

One of Pier Giuseppe Monateri’s most valuable lessons is that the legal comparatist ought to go beyond legal systems’ surface to uncover and explore the inner socio-political and cultural dynamics which inform juridical conceptions of order and normative experiences broadly understood. This chapter makes a significant contribution to the scholarship on Monateri’s intellectual import to the comparative enterprise by arguing that his conception of legal comparison is best epitomised by his recent monograph, Dominus Mundi: Political Sublime and the World Order. To show this, the chapter contextualises two recent accounts of the world and European orders—namely, Quinn Slobodian’s history of global neoliberalism, and Michael A. Wilkinson’s appraisal of European authoritarian liberalism—from the perspective of Monateri’s claims in Dominus Mundi. In so doing, it demonstrates that Monateri’s inventive thinking and inter-disciplinary comparative endeavours contribute not only to comparative law’s healthy development but also, to a meaningful understanding of past and present political-legal events.
