Recenzii
Hooghe, Lenz and Marks have written a first-rate book that sheds new light on classic questions of authority and institutional design, offers fascinating insights into the way IOs operate and evolve, and presents a range of new puzzles for researchers to explore. It deserves to be widely read.
Why have states in the post-World War era conferred ever-growing authority on international organizations? In this amazingly ambitious book, Liesbet Hooghe, Tobias Lenz, and Gary Marks convincingly dissect the authority of IOs over time and across space. They trace its sources to the scale and community of governance, and explain why general-purpose and task-specific IOs are distinctively different creatures. At a time when IOs are increasingly challenged, this book offers a profound understanding of the drivers and conditions of international governance.
Deep thinking and theorizing as well as profound and methodologically advanced empirical analysis - if you ask for the impossible and want to have both in one book, this one has it. A Theory of International Organization is at its core about the tension between scale and community. It develops a sophisticated and encompassing set of insights into the working of International Organizations in an interdependent world constituted of (mostly) national communities. This book is one of the most important contributions to a new wave of theorizing about world politics that overcomes old schisms. It is a must-read for all serious students of International Relations.
This sophisticated volume puts the social back into the international social contract among states. There is not an account of international organizations available today that more skillfully and persuasively combines the best of liberal and constructivist theory. Read it, and you will gain new insights into the stresses and strengths of the liberal international order.
This path-breaking book theorizes more than ten years of research on international organizations (IOs) at the global and regional levels by the authors. At a time when IOs are under increasing political pressure, the authors offer a post-functionalist theory of IOs. While interdependence explains the demand for IOs, degrees of transnational communities account for the variation in IO political authority. Required reading for anybody concerned about global governance!
