Description: Contending Perspectives On Global Governance : Coherence, Contestation And World Order, Paperback by Ba, Alice D. (EDT); Hoffmann, Matthew J. (EDT), ISBN 041535675X, ISBN-13 9780415356756, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US In spite of its growing ubiquity, attest the editors (professors of political science and international relations at the U. of Delaware), the term "global governance" has remained frustratingly ill-defined and ambiguous, impeding both understanding and practice. However, rather than impose a unitary definition upon these proceedings, they present a portrait of the multiple understandings of the concept in order to facilitate clearer communications about global governance across perspectives and disciplines. Thirteen papers provide both established and alternative perspectives, with the former representing the views of realism, historical materialism, the English School, regime theory, constructivism, and a combination of Gramscian and world systems theory, while the latter provide the perspectives of those concerned with post-international theory, public law, private authority, regionalism, global civil society, and liberal imperialism.
