| Description: |
What kind of activity is global governance? What do all of the many sectoral forms of global governance -- of the planetary environment, of global finance and global health -- have in common? Moving beyond sector-specific studies, this book outlines the fundamentals of global governance in eight chapter-length propositions. |
| Synopsis: |
If comprehensive global governance can never be more than the sum of numerous forms and levels of governance, is an inclusive, coherent and effective global governance possible? What must be the fundamentals of governance as an activity in order for the world's states and peoples to achieve a peace, stability and sustainability? Moving beyond sector-specific studies, this book outlines the essentials of global governance in eight chapter-length propositions. These studies examine the challenges that beset the exercise of governance not only as matters of political contestation within and between states, but also between the spheres of governance we have already set in place to cope with our highly complex world. The book concludes by describing how all of the eight 'fundamentals' combine, in a study of the human rights regime as global governance. Strongly argued and richly detailed but clearly written and accessible to non-specialists, The Fundamentals of Global Governance brings a novel approach and fascinating insights to the study of global governance. |
