"Rorden Wilkinson and Steve Hughes have produced the best
collection of essays yet available on the important, but
notoriously slippery concept of global governance. Their aim was to
interrogate the contemporary practice of global governance from a
variety of theorectical and institutional perspectives and in that
they have unquestionably succeeded. lo-Professor Tony Payne,
Department of Politics, University of Sheffield."
