Produktbeschreibung

"This book is a goldmine for scholars and practitioners eager to understand and contribute to global cooperation. An audacious and looking-forward exercise that boosts determination and creativity."

-Valérie Rosoux, Professor - Director of Research, FNRS and University of Louvain, Belgium

"Although multilateral institutions seem to be in crisis, the editors of this important volume argue that they are 'more resilient, more reactive, and more effective than usually thought.' A must-read for anyone interested in contemporary international relations."

-Lise Howard, Professor of Government and Foreign Service, Georgetown University, USA

"This important boocoverk shows that crisis is constitutive of multilateralism. As its rich case studies illustrate, disagreement, struggle and conflict form its normal conditions."

-Vincent Pouliot, James McGill Professor, McGill University, Canada

This book explores the challenges that multilateralism faces and questions the idea of a 'crisis' of multilateral cooperation and international organizations. It examines recent pressures on and power shifts in multilateralism such as the war in Syria, the Covid-19 pandemic, challenges for NATO, the erosion of multilateral norms, the Trump-Biden transition, the rise of China, the post-Brexit European Union, and the mobilization of countries from the South. The book also illustrates the resilience of multilateralism and some lessons learned from the WTO, UN Women, IO Secretariats or global environmental governance. It argues that 'crisis' should not be considered a pathology but the 'matrix' of multilateralism. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of IR, global governance, and international organizations.

Rezensionen

"Auriane Guilbaud, Franck Petiteville and Frédéric Ramel have produced Crisis of Multilateralism? Challenges and Resilience which assesses multilateralism and the challenges it faces in such erratic times. A total of seventeen contributors from several universities contribute through chapters covering a variety of aspects related to contemporary multilateralism. ... Crisis of Multilateralism? has the merit of revealing the complexity of multilateralism ... and invites the reader to avoid the trap of oversimplification." (Victoria BRUNÉ, European Review of International Studies ERIS, Vol. 11 (2), 2024)
