Definición

  • Supranational applied to legal systems refers to both institutions created and governance conducted at a level higher than the nation-state. Since the Second World War, groups of states have signed agreements (often regional) to cede some decision-making authority over specific subjects to collective entities, thereby reducing any individual member-state's abilities legally to act unilaterally. [Source: Encyclopedia of Law & Society: American and Global Perspectives; Courts, Supranational]
