Description
Book SynopsisTrade ReviewThe editors of this book have undertaken a Herculean but very important task: to show that international governance will be the dominant school of thought among international relations scholars in the future. This book is well organized and the contributors make a persuasive case, beginning rightly, this writer believes, with examining China's views (the nation that is most critical to global trends) on the subject. -- John F. Copper, Rhodes College
This book is well-written and well-organized and will appeal to students, scholars and practitioners. It is a clear, balanced, and timely volume that will be considered a 'must read' by anyone with an interest in Chinese politics and global politics. A solid work. -- Dennis V. Hickey, Missouri State University
