Institutions of Global Governance: Shifting Dynamics in a Turbulent World

‘Understanding global governance in a time of turmoil requires theoretically informed analysis and deep knowledge of governance arrangements. This volume provides both: an up-to-date review of research and detailed investigations of governance across issue areas. Few recent works can compare with its expert roster of authors and its scope.’ — Miles Kahler, School of International Service, American University, USA

‘Our increasingly connected and divided world is in dire need of global governance. Yet, global governance cannot provide the kind of outcomes we expect from local governance, such as leadership, legitimacy, accountability, or efficiency. Why is it so? How can this problem be addressed? This book is an essential resource for those who believe, as I do, that answers are both important and urgent.’ — Pascal Lamy, Paris Peace Forum and Jacques Delors Institute, Europe and Former Director-General, WTO

‘In an era where global governance is under increasing pressure, this book provides a timely and insightful examination of the institutional challenges facing international organizations. Through detailed and highly relevant case studies ― from cybersecurity and trade to financial governance and climate action ― it provides critical insights for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers committed to protecting global public goods amidst rising fragmentation and uncertainty.’ — Antoni Estevadeordal, Georgetown Americas Institute, USA
