Many analysts have pointed to the critical importance of
'democratic deficits' of various stripes, ranging from those in the
United Nations and the European Union to the communities in which
we live or teach. Do such deficits really matter? For those who
believe that they do, we finally have a cohesive edited volume that
addresses a complex, but indispensable and often overlooked,
challenge for scholars who truly care about the future of global
governance, namely its democratic legitimacy. ...If you are
interested in democracy and global governance and there should be
no one who is not - read this book from cover to cover. It is
essential reading for those interested in the future of our
troubled and fragile planet.' - From the foreword by Thomas G.
Weiss, CUNY Graduate Center, USGlobalization needs effective global
governance. The important question of whether this governance can
also become democratic is, however, the subject of a political and
academic debate that began only recently. This multidisciplinary
book aims to move this conversation forward by drawing on insights
from international relations, political theory, international law
and international political economy. Focusing on global
environmental, economic, security and human rights governance, it
sheds new light on the democratic deficit of existing global
governance structures, and proposes a number of tools to overcome
it. This book will be required reading for researchers, academics
and students with an interest in political science and law, and
indeed anyone concerned with the future of global governance.
