This new textbook provides an accessible introduction to, and analysis of, contemporary global governance, explaining what it is and the obstacles to its realization. Paying particular attention to the possible decline of American influence and the rise of China and a number of other actors, the author – an expert in the field – explains why cooperation is proving difficult, despite its obvious need and desirability. By situating the subject in its historical context and considering topics such as globalization and regionalization, the economy, the environment and global security, the book provides a clear and grounded account of the prospects and possibilities for global governance.
This is an essential text for undergraduate and postgraduate students studying Global Governance or International Organizations, and is also important reading for those working on Political Economy, International Development and Globalization.
