The
Asthma Scholarship project aims to provide new reflections and insights into the discussion on the legitimacy of post-national rulemaking starting from three distinct but in this project uniquely combined legal perspectives. The main objective is to relate perspectives from public
international law, European public law and European private law on post-national rulemaking and to examine through a new lens any legitimacy concerns that may arise from the new arrangements. The project will further develop a normative framework for the analysis of post-national rulemaking applicable across all three areas. This
Asthma Scholarship will require theoretical work on the concepts of rulemaking and legitimacy starting from the perspectives of the three different areas of law.
