As we face new challenges from climate change and the rise of populism in Western politics and beyond, there is little doubt that we are entering a new configuration of world politics. Driven by nostalgia for past certainties or fear of what is coming next, references to normalcy have been creeping into political discourse, with people either vying for a return to a past normalcy or coping with the new normal. This book traces main discourses and practices associated with normalcy in world politics. Visoka and Lemay-Hébert mostly focus on how dominant states and international organizations try to manage global affairs through imposing normalcy over fragile states, restoring normalcy over disaster-affected states, and accepting normalcy over suppressive states. They show how discourses and practices come together in constituting normalization interventions and how in turn they play in shaping the dynamics of continuity and change in world politics.

'Billionaires in World Politics' shows how the privatisation of politics assumes a new dimension when billionaires wield power in world politics, which requires a re-thinking of individual agency in International Relations. Structural changes (globalisation, neoliberalism, competition states, and global governance) have generated new opportunities for individuals to become extremely rich and to engage in politics across borders. The political agency of billionaires is being conceptualised in terms of capacities, goals, and power, which is contingent upon the specific political field a billionaire is trying to enter. Six case studies explore the power of billionaires in their pursuit of security, wealth, and esteem.

Is an individualistic outlook in analysing world politics either possible or useful? This book is a collection of essays written by an international team of ten scholars. It deals with the status of individuals in world politics and tries to connect macro and micro levels of analysis. Five contributions by Michel Girard, Michel Nicholson, James Rosenau, Jacques Herman and Anna Leander explore some of the theoretical and methodological problems related to the individualistic perspective in International Relations. Five other contributions by Marcel Merle, Susan Strange, Dominique David, Jean Klein and Jean-Pierre Colin examine the role of exceptional or ordinary individuals in different spheres of international politics

Heterarchy in World Politics challenges the fundamental framing of international relations and world politics. IR theory has always been dominated by the presumption that world politics is, at its core, a system of states. However, this has always been problematic, challengeable, time-bound, and increasingly anachronistic. In the 21st century, world politics is becoming increasingly multi-nodal and characterized by "heterarchy" - the coexistence and conflict between differently structured micro- and meso quasi-hierarchies that compete and overlap not only across borders but also across economic-financial sectors and social groupings. Thinking about international order in terms of heterarchy is a paradigm shift away from the mainstream "competing paradigms" of realism, liberalism, and constructivism. This book explores how, since the mid-20th century, the dialectic of globalization and fragmentation has caught states and the interstate system in the complex evolutionary process toward heterarchy. These heterarchical institutions and processes are characterized by increasing autonomy and special interest capture. The process of heterarchy empowers strategically situated agents - especially agents with substantial autonomous resources, and in particular economic resources - in multi-nodal competing institutions with overlapping jurisdictions. The result is the decreasing capacity of macro-states to control both domestic and transnational political/economic processes. In this book, the authors demonstrate that this is not a simple breakdown of states and the states system; it is in fact the early stages of a structural evolution of world politics.

THE NORMATIVE, OPERATIONAL, AND STRUCTURAL QUESTIONS RAISED BY THE KOSOVO CRISIS WILL HAVE LONG-TERM CONSEQUENCES FOR HOW WE UNDERSTAND WORLD POLITICS. KOSOVO ALSO RAISES MANY CONCEPTUAL CHALLENGES THAT MAY WELL REDEFINE OUR UNDERSTANDING OF INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS. IN ORDER FOR THIS NEW GLOBAL SECURITY DIMENSION TO BE FULLY UNDERSTOOD, THE MOTIVATIONS FOR THE ROOTS AND DYNAMICS OF THE KOSOVO CONFLICT, AND PARTICULARLY FOR THE NATURE OF THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY'S RESPONSE, MUST BE FULLY UNDERSTOOD. ONLY ONE THING IS OBVIOUS: THAT THE CONSEQUENCES OF KOSOVO WILL KEEP STUDENTS OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS--AND NO DOUBT POLICY MAKERS--BUSY FOR YEARS TO COME.

Goldstein und Martin untersuchen die Auswirkungen von Verrechtlichungsprozessen auf Freihandel und internationale Handelsordnung. Unter Berücksichtigung von Erklärungsmustern der Politische Ökonomie und innerstaatlichen Bestimmungsfaktoren der Außenwirtschaftspolitik versuchen sie anhand von GATT und WTO einen optimalen Grad an Verrechtlichung und Normierung zu definieren, da sowohl zu stark ausdifferenzierte und verbindliche als auch zu laxe Regimes nachteilige Wirkungen auf Handelsliberalisierung haben können. Aus ihrer Sicht ist das WTO-Regime möglicherweise bereits übernormiert, da das GATT trotz eines niedrigeren Formalisierungsgrads bereits zu erheblichen Freihandelsfortschritte geführt hat (SWP-BRW)
