Recenzii
"James Yunker offers in this work a provocative and nuanced argument for limited world government. His account is particularly notable for the sustained attention it gives to tyranny concerns, and for its accessible application of economic principles to issues related to global poverty and economic inequality. The book should be of interest to students of global governance and international relations more generally, but also those concerned with some possible means of addressing sustainable and globally comprehensive economic development." - Luis Cabrera, Senior Lecturer in Political Theory, University of Birmingham
"Conventionalwisdomarguesthat any sort of aglobal authorityis unimaginable. James Yunker challenges this view by providing an innovative plan for a limited federal world government thatgoes beyond the United Nations, but not so far as tothreaten legitimate national interests.This bookconstitutes a welcome antidote to prevalent complacencyand wishful thinking about effective global governance in the absence of effective global government." - Thomas G. Weiss, Presidential Professor of Political Science and Director of the Ralph Bunche Institute for International Studies, The City University of New York
"At its core The Grand Convergence is a clarion call to take seriously the question of how the global system can be structured to overcome the primary problems faced by humankind. This book makes a serious and original contribution to the literature on global governance. Whether they agree with him or not, both the lay and the professional reader will find Yunker's style highly engaging and his argument challenging." - Andrew Strauss, Distinguished Professor of Law, Widener University School of Law
