Peters' research interests relate to public international law including its history, global animal law, global governance and global constitutionalism, and the status of humans in international law.

Peters’ theses are the following:

Referendums on territory, when conducted freely, fairly, peacefully and under impartial supervision, are a necessary but not sufficient procedural factor in the exercise of peoples' right to self-determination.

In this way they can contribute to the legalization of a change of territory, even in the case of the unilateral separation of a region from a state.

EU basic legal norms can and should be qualified as a constitution of the EU (irrespective of the existence of a formal constitutional document).

This European constitution obtains its legitimacy mainly through probation, and thus through its "output", i.e. legal and political results in the European public interest, less by its genesis and by the "input" from European citizens through elections and votes.

The erosion of state constitutional law through increasingly intense exercise of sovereignty by International Organizations, increasing international regulations and extraterritorial effects of state action can and should be compensated by the recognition of global constitutional law, which constitutes, channels and limits this exercise of sovereignty ("compensatory constitutionalism").

International law should and can counteract its tendency towards epistemic nationalism by problematizing national prejudices and maintaining sufficient distance from legal practice; the pursuit of a constructive utopia is the task of international law.

The democratization of international law and global governance is possible and necessary to complement its indirect democratic legitimacy (via national parliaments and governments) ("dual democracy").

The well-being of people, their security and their rights are the foundation and limit of state sovereignty.

"Humanity", not "sovereignty" is the ultimate rationale of international law.

A general principle of transparency has emerged as the fundamental principle of international law in all its branches, beginning with environmental law.

The function of transparency in international law is similar to that in national public law: transparency enables public criticism of the exercise of international sovereignty.

The principle of transparency strengthens the quality of international law as public law, as the right to establish and channel sovereignty, in the public interest and under the control of the public.

The transparency of international institutions and legislative and implementation procedures can thus mitigate the democratic deficit of international law, ie the lack of a world parliament, a democratic legislative process, and a direct right of citizens to participate in the appointment of international offices.

The history of international law can be rewritten using approaches of global history.

The Global History Approach raises awareness of the problem of Eurocentrism in the development of international law and its presentation, and makes it easier to recognize and appreciate non-European influences.

The individual enjoys "subjective international rights" and obligations which are, so to speak, below the threshold of particularly high-quality human rights, for example in international labor law, refugee law, international humanitarian law, etc. Allowing the recognition of these legal positions and the (contingent) international legal capacity of human beings expressed therein it is to qualify the individual as an original and normative priority (not only derived from the states and subordinate) subject of international law.

The shift from the state as the starting point of international law to man represents a paradigm shift in the international legal order.

Global animal rights will be established and developed as a field of research to safeguard animal welfare standards undermined by globalization, outsourcing and location mobility and to explore new concepts such as animal rights, animal status, the sovereignty of wildlife over natural resources.

The new field of research can receive suggestions from numerous neighboring disciplines as part of the "animal turn" of the humanities and social sciences.
