International Organization and Global Governance (Third edition)

Comprehensive coverage rendering it suitable for teaching on all international organization and global governance courses
Takes the idea of global governance seriously and places the role of international organizations (and other actors) appropriately therein
High profile and diverse line up of established and emeging scholars as contributors
Combines an exhaustive set of mainstream, seminal and cutting-edge scholarship with a critical perspective on the dynamics of IOs and global governance, as well as substantive issue area coverage.
The critical perspective it adopts is a particular strength, and it raises normative issues related to power, inequality and justice throughout which many textbooks skip over.
The editors engage important issue areas which are often overlooked in mainstream IR, including private military and security companies, as well as transnational criminal networks.
The textbook provides plenty of inspiration for self-guided study and possible final year dissertation projects etc.
Offers balance among various schools of thought - such as rational choice, constructivism, and Marxism.
