To the Notion of “International Labour Law”

Abstract

The article focuses on problem of combination of national and international sources in the regulation of labour. It is argued that certain important elements of international labour law do not fit into traditional international (public) law system. As long as it is incorrect to treat the international labour law as a separate branch of law, it is proposed to limit the application of this term only in respect of a legal discipline. In the same time this discipline is supposed to focus not only on international sources of law but on other national and private sources that are applied beyond the territory of certain state.
