- Summary:
- "The author, an economist, broadly analyzes governance choices for the planet as a whole, and how governing institutions must weigh how much to try to preserve valued local autonomy while promoting desired benefits from external openness. He makes a strong case for enhanced international cooperation in governance choices and that such cooperation will become more essential for the safe and sustainable evolution of the planet and its multiple jurisdictions"-- Provided by publisher.
