The first in-depth analysis of how global governance impacts on the
lives of ordinary people. This new volume includes four detailed
case studies on labour, migration, children and development that
explore the actual nature of governance policies in the GPE.
Jean Grugel and Nicola Piper clearly show how global governance,
the creation of global norms and regimes to regulate polities,
economic and social actors, suggests and promotes ideals such as
stable politics, democracy, human rights and individualism, with a
strategy to create a more ordered and ultimately better
world.
They move away from the traditional focus on elites, states and
global institutions to explore and analyze how liberal global
governance is really affecting ordinary people and how this is
often an obstacle to development, citizenship, voice and inclusion.
Paying particular attention to the global south, Asia and Latin
America, these expert authors trace the development of liberal
global governance. They also clearly examine and study how this
regulation has spread from areas such as trade and investment, to
development, labour, migration, children and the environment.
