Global Governance and the Nature of International Conflict Resolution

Abstract

The concept of global governance represents one of the most fertile intellectual ferments with which attempts have been made to rethink the nature of the international environment in the context of the changes brought about by the end of the Cold War. A new journal, Global Governance, has begun publication in the last few years,¹ and a growing body of literature attests both to the utility of the concept for describing emerging international conditions and to the scope of the interrogations to which it is now giving rise.²
