"some welcome analytic clarity on a notoriously slippery subject" -John Ikenberry, Foreign Affairs, 4/18/2001 |"Overall this is a welcome departure from the uneveness and lack of focus typically found in an edited volume. This work can easily serve as a starting point for anyone, scholar to student, who wants to grapple with the meaning and implications of globalization." -P. O'Neil, University of Puget Sound, Choice, 7/1/2001 |"... a stimulating introduction to the subject of globalization that contains... some rich insights for the specialist in the field." -George F. Botjer, University of Tampa, Perspectives on Political Science, 10/1/2001 |"Essays on such topics as the impact of globalization on national security and on the design of international institutions." - Chronicle of Higher Education, 1/12/2001 |"Amid the mountains of studies available in this genre, this is one of the few that deserves a place in the personal library of anyone interested in this most controversial of subjects.... Their collaborative effort has produced a most insightful volume, which usefully contradicts many (unsubstantiated) assertions that one hears or reads in the media- and indeed in much scholarly work.... There are no weak chapters in this volume. They all give abundant food for thought and raise fascinating questions and issues that will challenge even the best-informed of readers." -Omar Sanchez, Oxford University, Latin America Politics and Society, 7/1/2002 |"... well-developed and thought provoking.... the volume has aptly illustrated that globalism and globalization have created both an opportunity and a need for governance." -Paula L'Ecuyer, University of South Carolina, Journal of Politics, 2/1/2002 |"'Governance in a Globalizing World' provides useful information, makes a promising start towards a new vision, raises many good questions, and offers... helpful answers." -David M. Trubek, University of Wisconsin-Madison, American Journal of International Law, 7/1/2002 |"The book's strength is its clear argument for a new global governance model." -Donald E. Klinger, Professor of Public Affairs, University of Colorado, Public Administration Review, 11/1/2004
