Global Governance

‘The A to Z of Corporate Social Responsibility’, edited by Wayne Visser. The entries have been written by leading experts, global thinkers and CSR practitioners. The book aims to help managers, consultants and researchers navigate their way through the plenty of terms, codes and organisations associated with CSR.

Franziska Wolff from the Öko-Institut has written the entry on ‘Global Governance’. Locating it in the wider discourse on ‘governance’, she discusses global governance as a normative concept according to which the system of international institutions should be more tightly knit and better coordinated in order to re-embed politics in objectives such as international solidarity and ecological responsibility.
