The Long Battle for Global Governance charts the manner in which
largely excluded countries, variously described as 'ex-colonial',
'underdeveloped', 'developing', 'Third World' and lately
'emerging', have challenged their relationship with the dominant
centres of power and major institutions of global governance across
each decade from the 1940s to the present. The book offers a fresh
perspective on global governance by focusing in particular on the
ways in which these countries have organised themselves
politically, the demands they have articulated and the responses
that have been offered to them through all the key periods in the
history of modern global governance. It re-tells this story in a
different way and, in so doing, describes and analyses the current
rise to a new prominence within several key global institutions,
notably the G20, of countries such as Brazil, China, India and
South Africa. It sets this important political shift against the
wider history of longstanding tensions in global politics and
political economy between so-called 'Northern' and 'Southern'
countries. Providing a comprehensive account of the key moments of
change and contestation within leading international organisations
and in global governance generally since the end of the Second
World War, this book will be of great interest to scholars,
students and policymakers interested in politics and international
relations, international political economy, development and
international organisations.
