Global Governance and Rules for the Post-2015 Era: Addressing Emerging Issues in the Global Environment

Bys: Jos? Antonio Alonso and Jos? Antonio Ocampo

As 2015 approaches, and the international community considers ways to accelerate the implementation of the Millennium Development Goals, more attention is being focused on conceptualizing the agenda that should guide global development efforts beyond 2015. This book provides new ideas to tackle the current deficiencies in global rules and global governance for development. Three key questions form the basis of discussion- .The level of heterogeneity within developing countries has significantly increased in recent years. How do we identify the reality for these countries using a single diagnostic technique and a single therapy? .The globalization process accentuates interdependencies between countries. How can we develop the international capacity to govern these interdependencies and build cooperative answers to collective problems? .The bipolar world of the Cold War has vanished, yet the structures of global governance have not adjusted to the challenges of a multi-polar world. How can we improve governance to manage global challenges collectively? These questions are addressed by independent development experts assembled by the UN Committee for Development Policy, aiming to set an agenda for global discussions on international rules and governance for the coming years.
