International organisations and global problems: theories and explanations

International organisations (IOs) are considered fundamental in addressing global problems, but how effective are they?

Conflict (war), human rights, global health, financial governance, international trade, regionalisation, development and the environment are all issues that international organisations have been created to address.

This book looks at these eight key issue areas and guides the reader through an analysis of the successes and failures of international organisations in solving issues in global politics.
