Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most pressing issues confronting the multilateral trade system is the challenge posed by the rapid proliferation of preferential trade agreements. Plenty has been written about why governments might choose to negotiate preferentially or multilaterally, but until now it has been written almost exclusively from the perspective of governments. We know very little about how non-state actors view this issue of 'forum choice', nor how they position themselves to influence choices by governments about whether to emphasize PTAs or the WTO. This book addresses that issue squarely through case studies of trade policy-making and forum choice in eight developing countries: Chile, Colombia, Mexico, South Africa, Kenya, Jordan, Indonesia and Thailand. The case studies are based on original research by the authors, including interviews with state and non-state actors involved in the trade policy-making process in the eight countries of this study.
Book Synopsis Non-State Actors in World Politics by : D. Josselin
Download or read book Non-State Actors in World Politics written by D. Josselin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2001-10-29 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The involvement of non-state actors in world politics can hardly be characterised as novel, but intensifying economic and social exchange and the emergence of new modes of international governance have given them much greater visibility and, many would argue, a more central role. Non-state Actors in World Politics offers analyses of a diverse range of economic, social, legal (and illegal), old and new actors, such as the Catholic Church, trade unions, diasporas, religious movements, transnational corporations and organised crime.
Book Synopsis Non-State Actors and Authority in the Global System by : Andreas Bieler

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally in International Relations, power and authority were considered to rest with states. But recently, in the light of changes associated with globalisation, this has come under scrutiny both empirically and theoretically. This book analyses the continuing but changing role of states in the international arena, and their relationships with a wide range of non-state actors, which possess increasingly salient capabilities to structure global politics and economics.
Book Synopsis Public-Private Relationships in Trade Policy-making by : Je Hyun-jung Jessie
Download or read book Public-Private Relationships in Trade Policy-making written by Je Hyun-jung Jessie and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2018-06-12 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an ever more globalized and pluralized world, more attention is paid to engaging private parties in the process of trade policy-making, as non-state actors are often directly affected by trade policy shaped by governments. However, despite growing interest in this issue, there has been a relative lack of academic research on public-private relationships in trade policy-making under any kind of framework. The book, Public-Private Relationships in Trade Policy-making, proposes an analytical framework to examine various levels of public engagement, both in the international and national arena. By analyzing the WTO at the international level, and the US, EU, and Korea at the national level based on the author's proposed framework, this book goes beyond a mere descriptive approach to public engagement in trade policy-making to offer meaningful implications for policymakers in developing countries, which are increasingly acknowledging the importance of public-private relationships in the field of trade.
Book Synopsis The Making of International Trade Policy by : Hannah Murphy
Download or read book The Making of International Trade Policy written by Hannah Murphy and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the contributions of Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) to policymaking at the WTO, challenging the idea that NGOs can be narrowly understood as potential democratic antidotes to the imperfections of Inter-Governmental Organizations (IGOs). The book highlights the significance of interactions between states, NGOs and IGOs, in order to understand their contributions to international trade governance. Based on case studies in the areas of labour standards, intellectual property and investment rules, the author finds that NGO activities serve an agenda setting function: they publicize neglected traderelated issues, persuade others to support their positions, enhance the resources of less developed member states and highlight normative rationales for policy change. In evaluating NGO campaign tactics and emphasizing relations between NGOs and WTO member states, this book advances understandings of the parameters of NGO agency in global governance. The Making of International Trade Policy will appeal to scholars andstudents with an interest in NGOs, research institutes and thinktanks, as well as policymakers, national trade negotiators, government departments and the trade policy community. NGO personnel active on WTO and trade policy issues - both researchers and activists - will also find this book thought-provoking.
Book Synopsis The Ashgate Research Companion to Non-state Actors by : Bob Reinalda
Download or read book The Ashgate Research Companion to Non-state Actors written by Bob Reinalda and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2011 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After an introductory part on current qualitative and quantitative sources, this comprehensive collection of state-of-the-art essays is comprised of four main thematic parts: Part II examines actors other than governments, such as transnational religious actors, business representatives and experts, and also parliamentarians and agencies set up by IGOs. Part III studies the perceptions and understandings in political philosophy, international law and international relations theory. It questions concepts used (civil society, NGO, governance) and covers the limitations to be kept in mind. Part IV analyses the nature and impact of non-state actors. Chapters discuss processes within international bureaucracies (diplomacy, dynamism, bureaucratic power, contribution to democracy) and the quintessence of deliberation and decision making within NGOs and IGOs and of implementation, accountability and dispute settlement. Part V studies specific worlds of non-state actors: humanitarian aid, human rights, security, the North-South divide, health, trade and environment. Accessible and articulately written, The Ashgate Research Companion to Non-State Actors is aimed at a wide readership of scholars and practitioners in international relations.

Book excerpt: Two high-level commissions—the Sutherland report in 2004, and the Warwick Commission report in 2007—addressed the future of the World Trade Organization and made proposals for incremental reform. This book goes further; it explains why institutional reform of the WTO is needed at this critical juncture in world history and provides innovative, practical proposals for modernizing the WTO to enable it to respond to the challenges of the twenty-first century. Contributors focus on five critical areas: transparency, decision- and rule-making procedures, internal management structures, participation by non-governmental organizations and civil society, and relationships with regional trade agreements.

Book Synopsis The WTO System of Trade Governance by : Seema Sapra
Download or read book The WTO System of Trade Governance written by Seema Sapra and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Article proposes a restatement of the debate on Non- Governmental Organizations' (NGO) participation in the World Trade Organization (WTO). Moving away from the traditional emphasis on NGO participation in Geneva, the Article suggests that the discussion should include the broader category of non-state actors and their role in the WTO system of multi-level governance at both the international and the domestic levels. Lessons learned from empirical research on non-state actor participation in the WTO, particularly in the post-Doha period, provide new insights into how the WTO system of trade governance functions and the role non-state actors are increasingly required to play in such governance. The Article asks how does non-state actor participation within the WTO system alter conventional concepts of trade governance and ideas about how the WTO regime governs international trade relations? How are non-state actors (including NGOs) already participating within the WTO system? This Article suggests that the debate on non-state actor participation in the WTO system be reorganized around three questions: (1) What should be the objectives for the WTO's engagement with non-state actors? (2) With what kinds of non-state actors should the WTO engage? (3) Through which structures should the WTO engage non-state actors? This Article goes on to identify a key objective for WTO institutional reform on participation by non-state actors. It recommends that WTO reform efforts targeting greater transparency and integration with non-state actors contribute to the reform of domestic trade policy-making processes in member states. The WTO system ought to facilitate greater participation and consultation with non-state stakeholders at the national level of trade policy-making.

Book Synopsis Governing Climate Change by : Andrew Jordan
Download or read book Governing Climate Change written by Andrew Jordan and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-04-30 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change governance is in a state of enormous flux. New and more dynamic forms of governing are appearing around the international climate regime centred on the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). They appear to be emerging spontaneously from the bottom up, producing a more dispersed pattern of governing, which Nobel Laureate Elinor Ostrom famously described as 'polycentric'. This book brings together contributions from some of the world's foremost experts to provide the first systematic test of the ability of polycentric thinking to explain and enhance societal attempts to govern climate change. It is ideal for researchers in public policy, international relations, environmental science, environmental management, politics, law and public administration. It will also be useful on advanced courses in climate policy and governance, and for practitioners seeking incisive summaries of developments in particular sub-areas and sectors. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Students of trends, policymakers, entrepreneurs, academics, journalists and anyone eager for a glimpse into the next decades, will find this report, with colored graphs, essential reading.
