Global Governance—Challenges and Proposals for Reform

Global Governance has become an exciting issue in the current public debate. It is obvious that in many areas, the existing international economic systems need to be reformed in response to the new challenges posed by current political, social and environmental changes in the World Economy. As a response to these developments, we plan to provide a Special Issue "Global Governance: Challenges and Proposals for Reform" in the Policy Papers section of Economics. We especially encourage the submission of papers that go beyond the mere analysis of recent developments and the identification of shortcomings of the present system, and provide concrete proposals for a reform. The proposals could address a reform of existing institutional arrangements, or the creation of new arrangements. Papers are supposed to be policy-oriented.

Submitted Papers:

• Scott Barrett: Rethinking Global Climate Change Governance
• Jeffry A. Frieden: Global Governance of Global Monetary Relations: Rationale and Feasibility
