The Commonwealth consists of only a quarter of the world's
states and yet the Commonwealth Secretariat and Foundation have
made and continue to make a significant contribution to global
politics.
Commonwealth is a superb examination of an often neglected but
crucial force in world affairs. Timothy M. Shaw;
- explains the history, structure and future of the
Commonwealth
- demonstrates the central role that the Commonwealth has played
in advancing decolonization and supporting multiculturalism,
democracy and human rights
- details the significant links between Commonwealth institutions
and myriad networks concerned with education, development, gender,
health, islands, literature, media and sport
- examines the Commonwealth within the context of wider debates
about 'global' governance and globalization.
