Global Governance

The course examines global governance in an increasingly interdependent world. This include international or transnational structures such as formal international intergovernmental organizations (UN, WHO, WTO, APEC) and international nongovernmental organizations (Oxfam, Doctors Without Borders, Human Rights Watch), international rules or laws, norms or “soft law”, and international regimes in such areas as peacekeeping, disaster management, trade, social, and humanitarian issues.
