In a world shaken by constant crises and shifting power dynamics, Global and Regional Governance in a Multicentric World delves into the core of the global governance system, exploring its flaws, its evolution, and the forces seeking to reshape it. As the Western-crafted liberal order faces unprecedented scrutiny, this book provides a timely analysis of how emerging powers - China, Brazil, India, South Africa, and others - are challenging traditional governance models, proposing alternatives that better reflect their values, interests, and aspirations.
From Asia to Africa, Latin America to Eurasia, this book examines how these regions, collectively known as “the Rest” or “the Global South,” are responding to the shortcomings of a global system long dominated by Western interests. Through insightful regional studies, the authors highlight how “rising powers” are no longer willing to remain peripheral players; instead, they are pushing for a more inclusive, representative, and effective global framework.
Rooted in the latest international relations trends, this book offers an incisive exploration of new governance models emerging in a “multi-centric” world. It raises pressing questions about global stability as follows: Will these rising powers succeed in transforming the global order? How do they envision international cooperation? Can their ideas coexist with established Western powers?
Through this work, readers gain a nuanced understanding of the forces shaping tomorrow’s world and the potential pathways for reform. Ideal for scholars, policymakers, and those with a keen interest in world affairs, Global and Regional Governance in a Multicentric World is a compelling call to rethink contemporary global governance and the possible paths of the international agenda in an era where traditional multilateralism is no longer able neither sufficient to address the pressing challenges from our interconnected world.
