Global Public Policy

"The volume investigates the potential for, and emergence of, new policy arrangements along with their patterns of conflict and cooperation. Building upon theoretical inspirations from various traditions studying international affairs this book develops and applies the concepts of policy arrangements and countervailing power to the field of global business - civil society relations. The authors examine a range of key issues including labor, consumers, global finance, the mining industry, climate policy and the World Economic and Social Forums." "Global Public Policy will be of strong interest to students and researchers of international political economy, international relations and international business."--Jacket.
