We are in a critical period where civil society organizations
actively influence business political behaviour, while corporations
and business associations are adopting new and flexible strategies
aimed at closer contact with civil society. Against the backdrop of
such broad reorientations, this book analyzes the new and changing
roles of business and civil society actors to offer an accurate
portrayal of the formation of global public policy. With
contributions from leading experts in the field, it investigates
the potential for, and emergence of, new policy arrangements along
with their patterns of conflict and cooperation. Building upon
theoretical inspirations from various traditions studying
international affairs, this volume develops and applies the
concepts of policy arrangements and countervailing power to the
field of global business - civil society relations. A range of key
issues including labour, consumers, global finance, the mining
industry, climate policy and the World Economic and Social Forums
are examined. "Global Public Policy" will be of strong interest to
students and researchers of international political economy,
international relations and international business.
