By unpacking the practices and the values that have prevailed in three recent UN initiatives, this book demonstrates how global policymaking forms a patchwork pervaded by improvisation and social conflict. The book will appeal to students and scholars of global governance, international organizations and global policy studies.
This book analyzes the politics of global governance by looking at how global policymaking actually works. It provides a comprehensive theoretical and methodological framework which is systematically applied to the study of three global policies drawn from recent UN activities: the adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals in 2015, the institutionalization of the Human Rights Council from 2005 onwards, and the ongoing promotion of the protection of civilians in peace operations. By unpacking the practices and the values that have prevailed in these three cases, the authors demonstrate how global policymaking forms a patchwork pervaded by improvisation and social conflict. They also show how global governance embodies a particular vision of the common good at the expense of alternative perspectives. The book will appeal to students and scholars of global governance, international organizations and global policy studies.

Vincent Pouliot specializes in the study of global governance, specifically the politics of multilateral diplomacy, changing and hybrid practices, and global history. He has authored or co-edited six books with Cambridge University Press, including International Pecking Orders (2016), Diplomacy and the Making of World Politics (2015) and International Practices (2011). Jean-Philippe Thérien's work focuses on international organizations and global governance. He has published widely on the United Nations, North-South relations, global ideologies and the inter-American system. He is the co-author of Left and Right in Global Politics (Cambridge, 2008), and co-editor of Summits and Regional Governance (2016).
