<p><strong>Praise for the Third Edition</strong></p><p>"The theories and perspectives discussed in <i>International Organization and Global Governance</i> 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."</p><p>—<b>Faizel Ismail</b>, <i>University of Cape Town</i></p><p>"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." </p><p>—<b>Maria Ivanova</b>, <i>Northeastern University</i></p><p>"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 <i>International Organization and Global Governance</i> 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."</p><p>—<b>Peter Newell</b>, <i>University of Sussex</i></p><p>"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." </p><p>—<b>Laura Shepherd</b>, <i>University of Sydney</i></p><p>"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." </p><p>—<b>Jennifer Welsh</b>, <i>McGill University</i></p><p><b>Praise for the Second Edition</b></p><p>"<i>International Organization and Global Governance</i> 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."</p><p>—<b>Michael Doyle</b>, <i>Columbia University</i></p><p>"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." </p><p>—<b>Martha Finnemore</b>, <i>George Washington University</i></p><p>"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."</p><p>—<b>David Malone</b>, <i>United Nations University</i></p><p>"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." </p><p>—<b>Professor Ngaire Woods</b>, <i>University of Oxford</i></p>
