About this book

The rise of new powers such as China and India is sending shockwaves through the global multilateral system. This volume systematically examines how 13 multilateral institutions are responding to this shift, with some deploying innovative outreach and reform activities, while others are paralyzed by gridlock or even retreat from the global scene.

Reviews

“Dries Lesage and Thijs Van de Graaf ’s book investigates the relationship between rising powers and multilateral institutions. … Unquestionably, Dries Lesage and Thijs Van de Graaf have produced an edited volume that will become required reading for anyone interested in international political economy in general and for those who seek to understand how emerging powers can change the post-Cold War international order through institutional engagement and how these institutions must adapt to them.” (Alexandre Cesar Cunha Leite, International Affairs, Vol. 92 (5), 2016)

'This is a really useful, high quality edited collection. It gathers together several distinguished analysts of global institutions and asks them all to consider the new issues and changing trends generated for these institutions by the rise of non-Western powers in global politics. The book genuinely adds to our knowledge and understanding in this key, but often neglected, dimension of global economic and political change.' - Anthony Payne, University of Sheffield, UK

'No other work on emerging powers and global governance approaches this one in the distinction of its authors, the range of multilateral institutions covered, and the careful analysis of contrasting institutional responses that it contains. - Miles Kahler, American University, USA
