Specialty Definition: Harmonisation

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

In international law, the term harmonisation refers to the process in which different states adopt the same laws.

Harmonisation often occurs as a result of the operation of international treaties. The regulatory principles of stronger states are often (but not always) transplanted into weaker ones.
