The Group of Twenty book will provide a concise examination of the
purpose, function and practice of the Group of Twenty (G20) summit
with particular attention to its designation as a new "premier
forum for international economic cooperation." Although providing a
historical account of the G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank
Governors process, the main focus of the book will be on the
conditions, events and debates that led to the formation of the
permanent, expanded leaders' level forum. The historical span of
the G20 Summit process is not long, but the global transformations
that precipitated it are crucial for the analysis. Two central
themes will guide the analysis of this book; first, an examination
of "accumulating global deadlocks," which provide a framework of
the functional deficiencies plaguing the global system; and second,
"incremental institutional innovations," which will detail the
patchwork of reforms to the institutions of global governance that
led into the transformation of the G20's role. The book will
explore a variety of major debates, including; governance by clubs
versus multilateralism; the legitimacy of informal leadership; the
issue of the G20's composition of both solution' countries and
problem' countries; the role of the emerging powers; and, new
conceptions of North-South relationships. It will address the array
of functional challenges at the core of the global system. This
book will provide insight and analysis on the G20 beyond its
composition, offering a detailed examination of the ongoing shift
in economic power and the momentum toward global institutional
reform. This book takes into account the technical orientation of
the G20 Finance and its financial agenda but will drill deeper on
contextual issues. This book will also be produced very timely,
following the early incarnations of the G20 at the leaders' level.
It will draw from experiences of the initial four summits;
