Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd THE INTERNATIONAL POLITICAL ECONOMY AND INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTIONS
Starting with a selection of classical articles on international institutions, this book traces the evolution of regime analysis over the last two decades as a new perspective on international governance. In the process it provides a full account of the major schools of thought that have arisen to account for the demand for international governance, the formation of international regimes, and the effectiveness of international governance systems. By drawing a clear distinction between institutions and organizations and then analysing the relationship between the two, the book clarifies the concept of 'governance without government'. A number of essays explore the probable impact of the proliferation of international regimes on the character of international society. The book's concluding section takes stock of the current status of regime and analyses and assesses emerging challenges in this vibrant field of study.

Cornell University Press Creating Regimes: Arctic Accords and International Governance
Oran R. Young is a key participant in recent debates among international relations scholars about the dynamics of rule-making and rule-following in international society. In this book, he weaves together theoretical issues relating to the formation of international regimes and substantive issues relating to the emergence of the Arctic as a distinct region in world affairs. Young divides the overall process of regime formation into three stages—agenda formation, negotiation, and operationalization—and argues that each stage has its own particular political dynamics. Efforts to explain or predict developments in specific issue areas, he suggests, require careful attention to each stage in the process. Empirically, Young examines in detail the events leading to the formation of the Arctic Environmental Protection Strategy and the Barents Euro-Arctic Region. Although these cases exhibit the defining characteristics of all international regimes, they broaden our understanding of institutional arrangements that are largely programmatic, rather than regulatory, in nature and that are based on soft-law agreements.

Cornell University Press International Governance: Protecting the Environment in a Stateless Society
How can the global environment be safeguarded in the absence of a world government? In the vanguard of efforts to address this critical question, Oran R. Young draws on environmental issues to explore the nature of international governance. Young's analysis invokes the distinction between "governance," a social function involving the management of interdependent individuals or groups, and "government," a set of formal organizations that makes and enforces rules.

Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd Grand Challenges of Planetary Governance: Global Order in Turbulent Times
In this timely book, leading scholar Oran Young reflects on the future of the global order. Developing new lenses through which to consider needs for governance arising on a global scale, Young investigates the grand challenges of the 21st century requiring the most urgent and sustained planetary responses: protecting the Earth’s climate system; controlling the eruption of pandemics; suppressing disruptive uses of cyberspace; and guiding the biotechnology revolution. Exploring how developments such as globalization, the rise of increasingly influential non-state actors, and the onset of the cyber age are eroding the institutional foundations of international society, this book considers the prospects for new forms of global order that differ in important ways from the familiar but increasingly problematic states system. Offering critical insights into the pressing need for institutional change to meet 21st century challenges, this book will prove beneficial to scholars working on matters involving governance on a global scale. Practitioners looking to connect their actions to broader analytic concerns will also find the book insightful.
