Global Governance in the World at 2000
From: London School of Economics and Political Science | By: Fred Halliday

EDITOR'S INTRODUCTION | Fred HallidayAs part of a series of talks at the LSE on the world in the year 2000, Fred Halliday (right), a leading figure in international relations, considers the issue of global governance. Global governance is understood as an issue of governance through institutions, international organisations and national governments, but also as a minimum framework of rules necessary to tackle global problems. This story casts a critical eye over the many alternative attitudes toward global governance, paying particular attention to the doom and gloom theories regarding globalisation and international organisations.



Fred Halliday discusses the attitudes toward global governance at the dawn of a new millennium.
