Global policy making is unfurling in distinctive ways above traditional nation-state policy processes. New practices of transnational administration are emerging inside international organizations but also alongside the trans-governmental networks of regulators and inside global public-private partnerships. Mainstream policy and public administration studies have tended to analyse the capacity of public sector hierarchies to globalize national policies. By contrast, this Handbook investigates new public spaces of transnational policy making, the design and delivery of global public goods and services, and the interdependent roles of transnational administrators who move between business bodies, government agencies, international organizations, and professional associations. This Handbook is novel in taking the concepts and theories of public administration and policy studies to get inside the black box of global governance. Transnational administration is a multi-actor and multi-scalar endeavour having manifestations at the local, urban, sub-regional, subnational, regional, national, supranational, supra-regional, transnational, international, and global scales. These scales of 'local' and 'global' are not neatly bounded and nested spaces but are articulated together in complex patterns of policy activity. These transnational patterns represent an opportunity and a challenge for the study of both public administration and policy studies. The contributors to this Handbook advance their analysis beyond the methodological nationalism of mainstream approaches to re-invigorate policy studies and public administration by considering policy processes that are transnational and the many new global spaces of administrative practice.

Will Donald trump international law? Since Trump's administration took office in January 2017, this question has haunted almost every issue area of international law. This work, by one of our leading international lawyers - a former Legal Adviser of the U.S. State Department, former Assistant Secretary of State for Human Rights, and former Yale Law Dean - argues that President Trump has thus far enjoyed less success than many believe, because he does not own the pervasive 'transnational legal process' that governs these issue areas. This text shows how those opposing Trump's policies in his administration's first two years have successfully triggered transnational legal process as part of a collective counterstrategy akin to Muhammad Ali's famous 'rope-a-dope.'

Die verschiedenen Konzepte von Governance befürworten für die Ordnung und Erledigung öffentlicher Angelegenheiten dem Prinzip nach eine erweiterte, nicht durch Repräsentation vermittelte Partizipation der Betroffenen und eine Kooperation der Institutionen hoheitlicher Herrschaft und Verwaltung mit sozialen Kräften, in denen Gemeinschaftsbelange und Interessen organisiert sind. Die deskriptive und analytische Fruchtbarkeit eines Konzepts von Governance für die Staats‐ und Verwaltungswissenschaften sowie die normative und dogmatische Verwendung und Richtigkeit des Konzepts für das Staats‐ und Verwaltungsrecht und das Europa‐ und Völkerrecht müssen unterschieden werden und sind in diesem Werk kritisch diskutiert worden. Der Text gibt einen Vortrag wieder, den der Verfasser auf Einladung des "Münchner Centrums für Governance-Forschung" am 1. Februar 2010 im "Center for Advanced Studies" der LMU gehalten hat. Peter Badura lehrte seit 1970 bis zu seiner Emeritierung an der LMU – München, wo er den Lehrstuhl für Öffentliches Recht, Rechts‐ und Staatsphilosophie innehatte
