Abstract

Extended order in formulating domestic laws could be founded on ripple effect from Chinese villages, which could be innovatively combined with Hayek’s theory in construction of international treaties, especially the Apostille. Take Apostille as an example, regional rules originating from the Europe could be used as a tool to shed light on the implementation of Apostille later in international community. Therefore, regional rules could be treated as a good point to re-examine the formulation of international treaties and trace specific implementation of Apostille in different contracting states. Meanwhile, The formulation of a treaty is also not a destination of developing extended orders in electronic era.
