On its 30th anniversary in 2004 responsibility for hosting the G8
Summit fell into the hands of an allegedly unilateralist America.
An America still reeling from the shock of the September 11th
terrorist attacks, the resulting economic recession, bitter
divisions with its NATO allies and disappointment with the United
Nations Institutions over the 2003 Iraq war. So why does America
still need the G8? New Perspectives on Global Governance offers new
insight into the role of the Group of Eight's major market
democracies and challenges the assumption that the G8 is simply a
forum for binding a unilateralist hegemonic America. In contrast to
seeing the G8 as a means of imposing an American world order this
unique collection of new writings suggests that a now vulnerable
America must rely on the G8 as a central instrument of foreign
policy. America needs the G8 to achieve its security, economic and
political interests in the world and to shape the twenty-first
central global order it so desperately wants.
