MB - Cornell University Press The Globalizers
Book SynopsisThe IMF and the World Bank have integrated a large number of countries into the world economy by requiring governments to open up to global trade, investment, and capital. They have not done this out of pure economic zeal. Politics and their own rules and habits explain much of why they have presented globalization as a solution to challenges they have faced in the world economy.from the IntroductionThe greatest success of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank has been as globalizers. But at whose cost? Would borrowing countries be better off without the IMF and World Bank? This book takes readers inside these institutions and the governments they work with. Ngaire Woods brilliantly decodes what they do and why they do it, using original research, extensive interviews carried out across many countries and institutions, and scholarship from the fields of economics, law, and politics.The Globalizers focuses on both the political context of IMF and World BankTrade ReviewAfter World War II, the winning powers created the IMF, to bring stability to the international monetary system, and the World Bank, to channel investment into development and reconstruction projects. Woods examines both institutions and how they have preformed these roles in regard to underdeveloped borrower nations. She chronicles the involvement of the IMF and the World Bank with Mexico, Russia, and sub-Saharan Africa. In a very balanced analysis, she shows that both institutions have failed in many instances to improve the lot of such countries, too often promoting policies to please their powerful shareholder nations such as the United States while failing to understand and deal with the special needs of borrower nations. She concludes by recommending six reforms for the two institutions to make them more open and equitable in their advertising and lending. * Library Journal *Perhaps mirroring public debate on the issue, scholarship on the role of the IMF and the World Bank in economic development has often treated these institutions as mere conduits of U.S. interest. In The Globalizers, Ngaire Woods seeks to amend this perception, offering a rich account of their activities that emphasizes the inner workings of these institutions and their negotiations with policymakers in developing countries. As such, The Globalizers provides an invaluable look at the processes that shape the IMF and World Bank's role in the global economy. * International Studies Review *Table of ContentsIntroduction1.

Princeton University Press The Politics of Global Regulation
Book SynopsisPresents an analytical framework to explain regulatory outcomes at the global level. This book offers a series of case studies that illustrate the challenges of a global economy in which many institutions are less transparent and are held much less accountable by the media and public officials than are domestic institutions.Trade ReviewSpecial Recognition for the 2010 Levine Prize, Research Committee on the Structure of Governance, International Political Science Association "The Politics of Global Regulation makes a significant contribution to this field of research, focusing on global regulatory changes in different policy areas... The book provides a well-structured and coherent set of contributions that focus on the difficulties faced by supranational regimes in avoiding regulatory capture at the global level."--Jacint Jordana, Governance "This impressive new volume demonstrates some of the best new thinking on global regulation and the ways in which the context and process of policy making affect the rules, standards and institutions that increasingly govern people's lives. Walter Mattli and Ngaire Woods provide the analytical centrepiece of the volume, which seeks to explain which interests are likely to be represented in global regulation... Thanks to this impressive volume, future work in this area will no doubt have a richer analytical grounding than before."--Kevin Young, Global Policy "The recent global financial crisis and recession have forced the issue of financial regulation to the top of the international political agenda. The current economic difficulties may provide the world with a one-in-a generation opportunity to formulate a set of constructive rules for the century's economy. The book deals with the general issue of how regulatory regimes are created and evolve... What a joy to find an edited volume in which the constituent chapters actually fit together in a coherent whole... All of the chapters refer back to the basic constructs presented in the opening theoretical piece--a rarity in this kind of work. The book is thus highly recommended to both experts in the field and neophytes."--Joel Campbell, International Affairs "[This book] ... is likely to make a significant impact on the field of international political economy."--Tim Dunne, Times Higher EducationTable of ContentsList of Figures and Tables vii Introduction ix CHAPTER ONE: In Whose Benefit?

John Wiley and Sons Ltd The Global Transformations Reader
Book SynopsisThe world is changing dramatically and a vigorous public debate is under way about the nature and historical significance of these changes. At the centre of this debate lie conflicting claims about the extent, form and consequences of contemporary globalization. On the one hand there are the globalists, who argue that the world is being fundamentally and irreversibly transformed by globalization. On the other hand there are the sceptics, who believe that the globalists'' claims are exaggerated and poorly substantiated. The sceptics contest the very idea of globalization, arguing that the power of national governments, nationalism and geopolitics remain the determining features of our age. This completely revised and fully updated edition of The Global Transformations Reader brings together the most original contributions from both sides of the argument and from a range of disciplines. Many new chapters have been added, which incorporate the most recent dTrade Review"Comprehensive and balanced. Concentrating the book as a whole on the 'globalization debate' makes its content and organization especially stimulating." International Journal of Contemporary Sociology "Indispensible! The Global Transformations Reader remains the first place to turn to understand current debates about the massive reconfigurations of power, wealth and knowledge that affect us all."

Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd The New Political Economy of Globalisation
Book SynopsisThere is now emerging across the world a group of scholars whose work crosses the conventional disciplinary boundaries in the social sciences. Their model combines the breadth of vision of the classical political economy with analytical advances of modern social science. This innovative two volume collection brings together the key papers that comprise the new political economy of globalisation, identifying a competing range of concepts and theories. It will prove an invaluable source of reference to students and researchers alike.Trade Review'No subject is of more relevance to the social sciences as a whole, and none has occasioned a wider range of divergence in approach, than that of globalisation. Globalisation is not just a process of importance in its own right but one which can test the pre-existing, bounded and national, limits of academic disciplines. The impact of this question has, however, too often been at the expense of precision. The contemporary debate on globalisation is in need, above all, of anchoring in conceptual and theoretical precision, in historical perspective, in facts. It is this challenge which the present collection admirably addresses: complementing analysis of change within the international economy with debate on the continued, if altered, role of the state, it at the same time explores changing patterns of governance and the possibilities that open, in an altered international situation, for new forms of actor and norms.

Book SynopsisAs economic, social and environmental connections among states have grown stronger and denser in the last decades, new levels and types of governance have emerged. The process of globalization, while not entirely new, has created new challenges for policymakers attempting to reap its benefits and manage its effects. This volume pulls together work on global governance that examines these challenges and looks at the patterns of governance that emerge. The work is organized into six sections. The first introduces concepts crucial to the analysis of global governance, including representation, efficiency, and hierarchy. The next two sections turn to specific patterns of governance in two realms, security and economic affairs respectively. The fourth section examines legal dimensions of governance. The fifth section concentrates on the impact of global governance on domestic politics, while the sixth looks at how concepts of norms and legitimacy structure our understanding of governance. Overall, this collection reveals a rich scholarly understanding of globalization, governance, and institutions that builds on deep theoretical roots while shedding light on major policy issues.Trade Review'...the collection reveals a scholarly understanding of globalisation governance, and institutions that builds on deep theoretical roots while shedding light on major policy issues.'

Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd Foreign Aid in the New Global Economy
Book SynopsisAid is one of the major issues in development and international relations. Over the last 50 years there have been remarkable changes in our understanding of aid's limits and potentialities as an instrument of economic, social and political change. This important collection brings together major landmark contributions to the analysis, structured around key issues and debates and offers an overview of present understanding. Aid's role in the new global political economy is under intense scrutiny, as analysts, politicians and civil society struggle to reach a consensus on such issues as how much and what kinds of aid to support, to which countries to allocate aid and under what conditions. Equally accessible to economists and non-economists, Foreign Aid in the New Global Economy provides an invaluable reference for anyone with a policy interest in aid, its consequences for international development and the theoretical underpinnings.Trade Review'Foreign aid to developing countries will never leave the political agenda; nor will the debate on the form it should take. The editors of this volume have performed the valuable task of bringing together 32 key papers on the political economy of aid; its distribution, and its costs and benefits to donors and recipients. To have all these papers in one volume will make the task of teaching that much easier, and will be an invaluable reference work for policymakers and practitioners.' -- A.P.

Taylor & Francis Ltd International Organization and Global Governance
Book SynopsisCompletely revised and updated, this textbook continues to offer the most comprehensive resource available. Concise chapters from a diverse mix of established and emerging global scholars offer accessible, in-depth coverage of the history and theories of international organization and global governance and discussions of the full range of state, intergovernmental, and non-state actors.All chapters have been revised and rewritten to reflect the rapid development of world events, with new chapters added on: Chinese approaches to international organization and global governance The UN System The Global South Sustaining the Peace Queering International Organization and Global Governance Post-colonial Global Governance The Sustainable Development Goals The English School Inequality Migration <Trade ReviewPraise for the Third Edition "The theories and perspectives discussed in International Organization and Global Governance provide students, policy makers, and activists with a historical lens to understand where we all come from, together with a large tapestry of inter-related analytical strands to build a vision and strategies for change towards a new global order based on equity, social justice, peace, security, and sustainability. This book should be on the essential reading list for all students studying IR, Politics, Global Governance, Development Studies, International Political Economy, and International Business." —Faizel Ismail, University of Cape Town "In this volume Weiss and Wilkinson deliver a complete 3,000 piece puzzle of global governance. What is exceptionally valuable is that they offer both the 30,000 foot view of the complex and comprehensive landscape and the details behind each piece of international organization." —Maria Ivanova, Northeastern University "In a world riven with war, reeling from a global pandemic, and facing a climate and ecological emergency, it is ever more important to understand the global institutions and actors seeking to respond. In trying to make sense of an ever more complex governance landscape, the latest edition of International Organization and Global Governance brings together top scholars on a bewildering array of key global challenges to provide a timely, authoritative, and accessible guide to the world we live in." —Peter Newell, University of Sussex "The third edition of this important book is a tour de force. Responding effectively to a range of new governance challenges, the volume offers both accessible discussions of theoretical frameworks and rich empirical accounts of governance actors, mechanisms, and processes. The collection enriches our collective understanding of governance and is a must-read for scholars and students alike." —Laura Shepherd, University of Sydney "Too often, the study of international organizations (IGOs) and global governance has been relegated to lower-class status in the discipline of International Relations (IR)—the terrain where idealists tinker while power politics dominate. Weiss and Wilkinson encourage our discipline to rethink, and deepen, its analysis of the relationship between international organizations (IGOs) and global governance. By transcending the separation and confusion between the way that IGOs and global governance have been conceptualized and studied, this fully updated volume provides scholars and students critical tools to navigate the contemporary global governance puzzle in a time of great turbulence and change." —Jennifer Welsh, McGill University Praise for the Second Edition "International Organization and Global Governance is remarkable not just for the breadth and depth of its coverage, but for its ability to stretch our understandings of both organization and governance. It covers classic theories and established institutions (such as the UN and regional organizations) while illuminating the sometimes obscure powers of nongovernmental and "private" entities (ranging from human rights groups to bond rating agencies). This is an indispensable resource for the field." —Michael Doyle, Columbia University "An indispensable resource for any student of contemporary global affairs. This latest edition of a now-classic volume balances breath of coverage with conceptual depth and sophisticated analysis. The editors here have assembled a top-notch team to write an outstanding collection of insightful, accessible essays that span the enormous range of challenges and changes in global governance today." —Martha Finnemore, George Washington University "The first edition of this volume was a land-mark; this second, much-updated volume is most welcome. The editors and authors are all leading authorities on their topics. Highly recommended." —David Malone, United Nations University "In a fracturing world, international cooperation is looking fragile. This book provides a useful overview of how international organizations can help, where they fail, and with what consequences." —Professor Ngaire Woods, University of Oxford Table of ContentsPart I: Introduction From International Organization to Global Governance Thomas G.

Cornell University Press The Globalizers
Book SynopsisThe IMF and the World Bank have integrated a large number of countries into the world economy by requiring governments to open up to global trade, investment, and capital. They have not done this out of pure economic zeal. Politics and their own rules and habits explain much of why they have presented globalization as a solution to challenges they have faced in the world economy.from the IntroductionThe greatest success of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank has been as globalizers. But at whose cost? Would borrowing countries be better off without the IMF and World Bank? This book takes readers inside these institutions and the governments they work with. Ngaire Woods brilliantly decodes what they do and why they do it, using original research, extensive interviews carried out across many countries and institutions, and scholarship from the fields of economics, law, and politics.The Globalizers focuses on both the political context of IMF and World BankTrade ReviewAfter World War II, the winning powers created the IMF, to bring stability to the international monetary system, and the World Bank, to channel investment into development and reconstruction projects. Woods examines both institutions and how they have preformed these roles in regard to underdeveloped borrower nations. She chronicles the involvement of the IMF and the World Bank with Mexico, Russia, and sub-Saharan Africa. In a very balanced analysis, she shows that both institutions have failed in many instances to improve the lot of such countries, too often promoting policies to please their powerful shareholder nations such as the United States while failing to understand and deal with the special needs of borrower nations. She concludes by recommending six reforms for the two institutions to make them more open and equitable in their advertising and lending. * Library Journal *Perhaps mirroring public debate on the issue, scholarship on the role of the IMF and the World Bank in economic development has often treated these institutions as mere conduits of U.S. interest. In The Globalizers, Ngaire Woods seeks to amend this perception, offering a rich account of their activities that emphasizes the inner workings of these institutions and their negotiations with policymakers in developing countries. As such, The Globalizers provides an invaluable look at the processes that shape the IMF and World Bank's role in the global economy. * International Studies Review *Table of ContentsIntroduction1.

Wilfrid Laurier University Press Exporting Good Governance: Temptations and Challenges in Canada's Aid Program
Book Synopsis Can good governance be exported? International development assistance is more frequently being applied to strengthening governance in developing countries, and in Exporting Good Governance: Temptations and Challenges in Canada's Aid Program, the editors bring together diverse perspectives to investigate whether aid for good governance works. The first section of the book outlines the changing face of international development assistance and ideas of good governance. The second section analyzes six nations: three are countries to which Canada has devoted a significant portion of its aid efforts over the past five to ten years: Ghana, Vietnam, and Bangladesh. Two are newer and more complex ""fragile states,"" where Canada has engaged: Haiti and Afghanistan. These five are then compared with Mauritius, which has enjoyed relatively good governance. The final section looks at challenges and new directions for Canadas development policy. Co-published with the Centre for International Governance Innovation Trade Review``Timely and important.... Taken together, these twelve chapters are well researched and effectively presented. They draw prudent conclusions and do not make exaggerated claims. The country case studies are appropriately chosen to illustrate a range of situations, from fragile states like Haiti and Afghanistan, to more promising examples like Ghana, through to a relative success stoy like Mauritius. Moreover the volume is highly readable, not only by serious scholars but also by practitioners and journalists. One pleasing feature is the extensive use of cross-referencing. Several of the authors had obviously read and thought about the other chapters, and this reading informs what they have to say, thus enhancing the unity and the quality of the whole volume.'' -- Laurence S. Cumming -- Canadian Journal of Development Studies, Vol. 30, nos. 3-4, 2010, 201007``The authors have given us one of the more important recent books on Canadian international public policy--on a par with Janice Stein and Eugene Lang's The Unexpected War: Canada in Kandahar.... The changing international and Canadian contexts for aid are well laid out, as are the implications provided by the empirical evidence.... The authors punch huge holes in the naã-ve and simplistic assumptions behind much of good governance programming.'' -- Jean-Marc Mangin, Director of CUSO -- Journal of Military and Strategic Studies, 200805Table of Contents Exporting Good Governance: Temptations and Challenges in Canada's Aid Program, edited by Jennifer Welsh and Ngaire Woods Introduction Jennifer Welsh and Ngaire Woods The Changing Politics of Aid Ngaire Woods Focusing Aid on Good Governance: Can It Work?
