Recenzii
Transforming International Institutions is a tour de force that cements Erin Graham as one of the most important and innovative voices in International Relations. In this timely, well-researched, and theoretically innovative study of the United Nations, Graham revisits traditional understandings of how change takes place in the world's leading organization. With deep anchors in historical institutionalism, Graham meticulously documents a quiet revolution in the UN from an organization that was multilateral in theory and practice to an organization where a small number of states control agendas by means of earmarked budgets. This is a must-read for global governance scholars and practitioners who will benefit equally from Graham's historical research and analysis of the contemporary period.
The United Nations has significantly transformed since its founding, as the practice of earmarked funding progressively took over the mandatory state contributions provided by the Charter. Based on extensive longitudinal research, this excellent book not only throws light on this crucial, troublesome and yet partly belowground change in multilateral politics—it also develops an insightful theory of incremental institutional design that further illuminates the plasticity of international rules and the continued efforts of decision-makers to remold them. A great scholarly accomplishment, both analytically and empirically.
Transforming International Institutions masterfully demonstrates how minor changes in United Nations funding rules had major unanticipated consequences; ultimately granting individual donor states substantial policy influence over UN agencies. Professor Graham's book makes important contributions to international relations theory and it is deeply grounded in history. But the book will also appeal to students and policy makers who are interested in better understanding how donor money has gradually become such an important determinant of what UN agencies do and don't do.
Transforming International Institutions rewrites some of the established narratives around the research agenda on the resourcing of IOs (Goetz & Patz, 2017) and in particular on the role of trust funds and earmarking in IO financing...This literature, explicitly or implicitly, traces the trend that IOs have become dependent on earmarked voluntary funding back to dynamics in the 1990s and 2000s, while Graham reveals how the roots of these developments date back to the early decades of the United Nations.
