This module asks students to consider who governs the globe. The module examines this question by exploring emergent patterns of governance at the global level and investigating the theoretical and empirical tools to analyse these developments. At the theoretical level, the module considers how governance patterns can be understood through at least five different lenses: realism, institutionalism, constructivism, cosmopolitanism, and critical theory. At the empirical level, the module explores the challenges that the increasing complexity of the global governance terrain has presented to state and non-state actors in addressing key problems. The three key issue areas examined are the global governance of finance and trade, humanitarian intervention and global health.
By the end of the module, participants should demonstrate an ability to:
