This book provides an accessible introduction to the current debate about the changing form and political significance of global governance. It brings together original contributions from many of the best-known theorists and analysts of global politics to explore the relevance of the concept of global governance to understanding how global activity is currently regulated. Furthermore, it combines an elucidation of substantive theories with a systematic analysis of the politics and limits of governance in key issue areas - from humanitarian intervention to the regulation of global finance. Thus, the volume provides a comprehensive theoretical and empirical assessment of the shift from national government to multilayered global governance.
"Governing Globalization" is the third book in the internationally acclaimed series on global transformations. The other two volumes are "Global Transformations: Politics, Economics and Culture "and "The Global Transformations Reader: An Introduction to the Globalization Debate."
