International institutions are prevalent in world politics. More
than a thousand multilateral treaties are in place just to protect
the environment alone, and there are many more. And yet, it is also
clear that these institutions do not operate in a void but are
enmeshed in larger, highly complex webs of governance arrangements.
This compelling book conceptualises these broader structures as the
'architectures' of global governance. Here, over 40 international
relations scholars offer an authoritative synthesis of a decade of
research on global governance architectures with an empirical focus
on protecting the environment and vital earth systems. They
investigate the structural intricacies of earth system governance
and explain how global architectures enable or hinder individual
institutions and their overall effectiveness. The book offers
much-needed conceptual clarity about key building blocks and
structures of complex governance architectures, charts detailed
directions for new research, and provides analytical groundwork for
policy reform. This is one of a series of publications associated
with the Earth System Governance Project. For more publications,
