International organizations have once more become subjects of
investigation for a whole range of scholars: political scientists,
international relations specialists, organization theorists, and
policy experts alike. The end of the Cold War, increased
globalization, and the intensification of regional and functional
cooperation all have produced a greater interest in the role of
international organizations, and rightly so, since they
increasingly take part in global governance as over-burdened
governments become more and more willing to transfer responsibility
to them or need to work through them.
International Organizations and Policy Implementation determines
the extent to which international intergovernmental organizations
are involved in the national implementation of internationally
formulated policies. In particular, it specifies the conditions
under which they can be more or less successful in influencing the
course and content of implementation or imprint their perspective
on domestic policies.
This edited volume helps to fill a gap in the existing
literature in two respects: contrary to many implementation
studies, the chapters are comparative in nature contrasting the
role of international organizations across time, different levels,
or different issue areas; and, second, they are theoretically
grounded.
