'By far the best volume on the subject of global governance in decades.' John Gerard Ruggie, Berthold Beitz Research Professor in Human Rights and International Affairs, Harvard University 'Observers of global governance are like viewers of a kaleidoscope, eyes transfixed by novel patterns flashing before their eyes. Global Governance in a World of Change eschews parsimonious theory but seeks to help dazzled observers by using the concepts of hierarchy, markets, and networks to describe 'modes of governance.'' Robert O. Keohane, Professor Emeritus, Princeton University 'This edited volume features comprehensive and insightful analyses by leading scholars of how the modes of global governance have changed across policy areas as diverse as health, climate change, arms control, trade, and humanitarianism. Essential reading for anyone interested in the possibilities and limits of collective solutions to the world's most pressing problems.' Erik Voeten, Peter F. Krogh Professor of Geopolitics and Justice in World Affairs, Georgetown University 'This compelling, well-structured book provides a roadmap for studying changes in modes of global governance-hierarchy, networks, and markets-across issues, together with the factors that explain them. Conceptually tight, the book casts a new lens on global governance at this time of uncertainty, rapid change, and multifaceted, overlapping global problems.' Gregory Shaffer, Chancellor's Professor, University of California, Irvine School of Law
