This carefully curated Research Handbook provides a wide-ranging exploration of global governance, including its successes and failures. It challenges the promise that global institutions and frameworks offer solutions to major world challenges such as climate change, pandemics, war, democracy, human rights and inequalities.
Adopting diverse theoretical and methodological approaches, the Research Handbook draws on a broad range of perspectives to interrogate the concepts of ‘global’ and ‘governance’, considering the ideologies reflected by these terms. Leading experts discuss the roles played by the state as well as local, regional and international organisations, addressing their accountability, transparency and governance legitimacy. Interdisciplinary in scope, the Research Handbook combines law with history, politics, sociology and international relations to challenge the conventional paradigms of global governance scholarship. It further illustrates the reshaping of transnational interactions and emphasises the need for local, indigenous and comparative viewpoints that are traditionally overlooked.
The Research Handbook on Global Governance is a vital resource for scholars and students of public international law, international economic and environmental law, the laws of war and peace, and international relations and politics. It will also benefit academics in political geography and sub-altern studies, as well as policymakers and practitioners in law, regulation and governance.
