Rezensionen

Awarded the Cambridge University Press and Transatlantic Study Association's prize for best book of 2016.

'Research into the history of global governance networks is extensive, yet there still remain a few key gaps that have lacked serious attention due to an absence of credible sources. This book does an important service by covering one of those gaps with consummate skill and attention to detail. Making use of exclusive access to relevant archives and key personnel, and framing it with an accessible theoretical approach, Dino Knudsen's study of the Trilateral Commission decrypts the blending of formal and informal networks within global governance, in doing so providing essential insights into how the world is actually run.' -- Giles Scott-Smith, Leiden University, Netherlands

'This study is the first serious multiarchival effort to reconstruct the concrete impact that the Trilateral Commission had on foreign policy making in the "long 1970s". Exhaustively researched and carefully argued, Knudsen's work makes an important contribution to our understanding of a decade that witnessed politics changing some of its traditional forms and a series of major transformations in international relations. Highly recommended!' -- Jussi Hanhimäki, Graduate Institute, Geneva
