Institutions of Global Governance
Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd (Verlag)
978-1-0353-0257-4 (ISBN)
This forward-thinking book provides a comprehensive overview of the expanding and fragmented landscape of global governance. Analyzing the shifting role of international organizations within this framework, it demonstrates the implications of growing uncertainty for global coordination and orchestration.
Expert authors explore diverse global governance institutions and their interactions against the background of the proliferation of public, private, and hybrid organizations. Chapters investigate how norm contestation, the rapidly rising importance of private actors, and the influence of emerging powers are reshaping governance dynamics. They critique traditional, state-centered institutions and emphasize the need for sector-specific and issue-driven analyses accounting for both structural and systemic dimensions. Including case examples, and future research directions, the book equips readers with tools to navigate and understand the tensions and opportunities that shape global governance today.
This book is a crucial resource for scholars and students of international relations, international law, European and international studies, and global governance. Practitioners and policymakers in international organizations and other global governance institutions will also benefit from its practical and theoretical insights.
