The G7, a self-selected club of like-minded industrialized
countries, looks at first glance ill-suited to address current
anti-globalist concerns. Despite this, it has successfully
confronted anti-globalization, populist and protectionist pressures
by focussing on concerns surrounding the destruction of the natural
environment, immigration, transnational crime, drugs, disease and
terrorism, thus demonstrating the social and ecological advantages
that globalization brings. Exploring how the world's oldest
informal summit institution continues to respond to rising
anti-globalisation, populism and protectionism, this book
investigates the contribution the G7 makes to global governance
through its actions and accountability of its members. The expert
contributors analyse from different perspectives the issues that
have contributed to the rise of populism and protectionism, and how
well the G7 has responded to them. Each contribution identifies
avenues that might allow renewing and strengthening the role of the
G7 in times of global change, with a view of strengthening its
legitimacy and effectiveness. It will be of interest to policy
makers, diplomats, scholars of international relations,
international political economy, diplomacy, summitry and global
governance. The issues discussed will also be particularly relevant
to those working for civil society and non-governmental
organizations seeking to participate in governance forums or to
influence those who do.
