Summary:

The global governance institutions established after World War II to manage global threats, especially the twin scourges of war and poverty, have expanded in reach and impact, while paradoxically losing the political support of some of their wealthiest and most powerful members. Their problems mimic those of their members in struggling to adapt to new problems and maintain trust in norms and public bodies. This volume argues, however, that a properly mandated, managed, and modernized global architecture offers unparalleled potential to midwife solutions to intractable issues-from violent conflict and climate change to poverty and pandemic disease-that transcend borders and the capacities of individual actors. It offers "just security" as a new framework for charting innovative solutions and strategies for effective and essential global governance. Book jacket.
