Abstract
Globalization processes and common challenges for the entire planet have resulted in existence of international organizations. Nowadays, these organizations are established regarding every sphere of life, such as trade, world security, environment etc. Most importantly, some international organizations may found their own system of law and adopt obligatory decisions for its members, which concern a broad range of issues in a fi eld of international relations. Furthermore, these decisions may impose obligations on states in spheres that have always been areas of domestic regulation. Consequently, questions arise with regards to direct application (or non-application) of norms of international organizations at the national level. In this article, a research is focused on Russia because this country has an experience of participation in international organizations at both global (like the WTO) and regional level (for instance, Eurasian Economic Union). This allows to examine the issue in a comprehensive way and determine challenges of ensuring conformity of domestic law with law of international organizations. Based on the aforementioned, the following aims of this paper should be emphasized:
- studying the possibilities of direct application of law of international organizations at the national level of Russia (taking the WTO as an example) as well as comparing of such application with the system of EU law;
- highlighting pressing issues of application of international organizations at the national level of Russia as well as taking them into consideration in the process of creation and implementation of the joint international master programme.
