It is now conventional wisdom to see the great policy challenges of
the 21st century as inherently transnational, spilling across
national boundaries. It is equally common to note the failures of
the international institutions the world relies on to address such
challenges. As the acclaimed 2013 book Gridlock argued, the world
increasingly needs effective international cooperation, but
multilateralism appears unable to deliver it in the face of
deepening interdependence, rising multipolarity, and the growing
complexity and fragmentation that characterise the global order.
The Gridlock authors have now partnered with a group of leading
experts to offer a trenchant - and surprisingly hopeful -
reassessment of elements of the Gridlock argument. Comparing
anomalies and exceptions to multilateral dysfunction across a
number of spheres of world politics, Beyond Gridlock explores seven
pathways through and even beyond gridlock. While multilateralism
continues to fall short, countries, international organizations,
civil society groups, sub-national governments, businesses, and
other actors are finding ways to build or defend effective
international cooperation. To be sure, gridlock persists across
many realms of world politics, but Beyond Gridlock identifies
systematic means through which, and the conditions under which, we
possess the agency to avoid or resist these forces, or even turn
them to the benefit of collective solutions. Combining critical,
comparative analysis across issues with forward-looking evaluation
of potential strategies, this book offers a vital new perspective
on world politics as well as a practical guide for positive change
in global policy.
