Required for peace and security, economic governance, sustainable
development and humanitarian support, International Organisations
(IOs) are central to the structure of global governance.
Introducing the importance of governance in IOs, this Handbook
addresses the collective challenges and synthesises the expertise
of global or regional representativeness for international
cooperation. Addressing four key themes the contributors explore
approaches to understanding governance in IOs; who governs IOs; the
roles of states; organisational culture, leadership and gender; and
the influence of civil society. Chapters further evaluate
historical representations of successful and unsuccessful
governance, including effective governance; institutional and
individual accountability; and the need for reform. The Handbook
then concludes with key reflections on the frequently asked
question: have international organisations had their day? With
contributions by leading academics and practitioners in the field,
this Handbook elucidates the evolution of governance in IOs. It
will be of great value to students and researchers in international
relations, global governance, and gender and governance.
