Description - The Global Governance Reader by Rorden Wilkinson

This unique account delivers students and scholars a comprehensive and considered overview of the way in which the world is governed. It draws together seventeen of the most significant works by leading specialists in the field, to explore the role of global institutions from the United Nations (UN) and NATO, to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), World Bank and the World Trade Organisation (WTO). Introductions to each article locate the readings within the broader global governance literature and provide a useful intellectual and historical context. Key concepts include: * the concept of global governance * possibilities and challenges * the governance of global capitalism * humanitarian crisis * finance and development * health and environment * global civil society. "Global Governance" is the ideal introduction to the key theories and issues behind the most significant emerging areas in world politics.
