What it covers
The unit examines the origins, development and challenges of global governance. You will be introduced to the core theoretical perspectives on global governance, and will critically examine its historical development over the 20th century, including the inter-war period, the Bretton Woods system and the post-Cold War neoliberal world order. You will also examine the persistent challenges facing global governance in the 21st century, including the aftermath of the Global Financial Crisis, the role of rising powers and climate change, as well as reflecting on the future trajectories of global governance in an increasingly fragmented world.
