Table of Contents1: The Making of Global Governance: Not by States Alone 2: Making Global Governance Structures: How International Bureaucrats Enter the Institutional Design Process 3: Insulating Global Governance Structures: How International Bureaucrats Shape the Institutional Design Process 4: Evidence of International Bureaucrats' Widespread Institutional Design 5: The Origins of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change: A Within-Case Probe 6: The Origins of the WFP, UNDP, and UNAIDS: A Cross-Case Probe 7: Rethinking Non-State Actors and Global Governance 8: Looking Ahead: Policy Implications and the FutureReviewsFor all those who think that states pull all the strings when it comes to designing and controlling international organizations, Tana Johnson's excellent book will force you to think again. While most studies focus on states as principals and international bureaucrats as agents, Johnson demonstrates that many international bureaucrats have mastered the art of insulating themselves from state control. This is a terrific study. Give it a careful read, and you will have a much better grasp of international organizational politics. * Beth Simmons, Clarence Dillon Professor of International Affairs, Harvard University * Organizational Progeny truly pushes us to reconsider the nature and consequences of delegation in global governance. Skillfully combining quantitative and qualitative analyses of the creation of international organizations, Tana Johnson convincingly shows how and why international bureaucrats matter to the design and evolution of cooperation in world politics. * Jonas Tallberg, Professor of Political Science, Stockholm University * Why are international governmental organizations (IGOs) often so difficult even for powerful states to control? A major reason, as Tana Johnson shows in her important and original book, Organizational Progeny, is that bureaucrats often play key roles in designing new IGOs, and in doing so they often succeed in insulating the new IGOs from state control. International bureaucrats are agents in two senses: active shapers of their environments as well as occupants of organizational roles constrained by state policy. * Robert O.
