This course introduces students to the structures, practices, norms and actors of global governance. The course begins with a consideration of core theoretical concepts, including governance, globalisation, institutions, power, authority, and legitimacy. We then consider debates on global governance as they pertain to broad issue areas of global governance such as global security governance, global health governance, global economic governance, global environmental governance, and global internet governance. The course concludes with some reflections on the long-term trajectory and future prospects of the global governance project.
