9783832934668: Governance and Legitimacy in a Globalized World

Synopsis

Authoritative decision-making in the formal context of hierarchical structures of 'government' is increasingly replaced by 'governance'. As a consequence, traditional modes of legitimizing political institutions, actors, and policies have become precarious. The chapters assembled in this volume address numerous aspects of these processes that have been transforming international, national, and subnational politics all over the world.
