"Global Governance from Regional Perspectives argues that the academic debate on global governance has neglected the combination of power with value constellations/culture. Both input and output legitimacy, for instance, or the exercise of control and influence are inextricably related to culture, worldviews, and values. The book questions theoretically the Western hegemonic and hence 'invisible' definition of governance and related concepts, as well as the Western hegemony over global governance institutions. It looks from the ground up whether, and how, alternative practices, institutions/networks, and concepts/norms of global governance are emerging in relation to emerging powers and regional integration systems. Global Governance from Regional Perspectives starts with a critical reading of global governance from multi-disciplinary views and engages with two important and under-studied aspects, notably how global governance can be measured and what lies behind such measurements , and questions the democratic deficit of global governance"--Back cover.

International organizations (IOs) are essential yet controversial actors in world politics today. This timely and engaging new title offers a comprehensive overview of major IOs and their role in global governance. [This book] presents a variety of theoretical approaches to analyzing the roles and impact of IOs. It then offers comprehensive, historically-grounded overviews of the most influential IOs--the United Nations, World Bank, International Monetary Fund, and World Trade Organization. A detailed case study on each illuminates the constraints and challenges it faces in areas such as conflict resolution, development, the environment, trade, and financial crisis. This important new text also examines regional organizations, with an emphasis on the European Union and the euro crisis and the African Union's peace operations

Tim Balint zeigt auf der Grundlage von vier Fallstudien, dass sich die Personalpolitik in internationalen Organisationen erst sehr spät und eher zögerlich in Richtung New Public Management verändert hat. Zur Erklärung werden kausale Mechanismen herausgearbeitet und dabei auf die bisher kaum erforschte Rolle von Akteuren innerhalb internationaler Verwaltungen abgehoben. Von besonderer Relevanz für die Erklärung sind die am traditionellen Bürokratiemodell orientierte Organisationskultur, die Politisierung der Reformdebatte, das Vertrauensverhältnis zu den Mitgliedsstaaten und die Rolle der politischen Führung.
