Robert O. Keohane has been one of the most innovative and influential thinkers in inteational relations for more than three decades. His groundbreaking work in institutional theory has redefined our understanding of inteational political economy. This book is a selection of his most recent
essays, which address such core issues as interdependence, institutions, the development of inteational law, globalization, and global goveance. The essays are placed in historical and intellectual context by a substantial new introduction outlining the developments in Keohane’s thought. In an original afterword (Chapter 12), the author offers a challenging interpretation
of the September 11th attacks and their aftermath. Power and Goveance in a Partially Globalized World is essential reading for anyone with an interest in inteational relations.
