New Perspectives on Global Governance

Beschreibung

A unique collection of new writing examining the role of the G8 Summit after it celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2004. New Perspectives on Global Governance challenges the assumption that the G8 is simply a forum for binding a unilateralist hegemonic America. Economic recession following the September 11th terrorist attacks, bitter divisions with its NATO allies and disappointments with the UN over the 2003 Iraq War means a more vulnerable America must rely on the G8 as a central instrument of foreign policy to achieve its security, economic and political interests in an increasingly uncertain world.
