Rezensionen

'The first edition of this handbook quickly established itself as an essential resource for students and scholars of international relations alike. With this updated and expanded edition, Bob Reinalda and Marieke Louis set the bar even higher as they address current challenges to international governance and give even more pride of place to diverse disciplinary and regional perspectives on international organization. Highly recommended.'

Jens Steffek, Professor of Transnational Governance, TU Darmstadt, Germany

'Reinalda and Louis have contributed an essential and comprehensive Handbook of International Organization. It features contributions from a distinguished group of experts and includes a mix of essays on enduring topics as well as very timely and relevant essays. Topics covered range from crisis management and non-human threats to economic sanctions, financing, and diversity management. The work also examines international organization from a variety of disciplinary perspectives including international law, history, anthropology as well as public administration and international relations theory. Beyond this, the volume offers a broad overview of methodologies and data sources and delves deeply into the workings of international secretariats. A wonderful compilation that serves as a crucial resource for scholars, practitioners, and students of international organization alike.'
