A New World Order. By Anne-Marie Slaughter. Princeton: Princeton University Press. 2004. 368p. $29.95.
This book puts forth a bold vision for global governance, based on a simple but powerful argument. The argument is this: “Networks of government officials … are a key feature of world order in the twenty-first century, but they are underappreciated, undersupported, and underused …” (p. 1). Central to this vision are the concepts of network and governance. Anne Marie Slaughter is careful to define each of these concepts and, in so doing, calls attention to the fundamental theoretical, empirical, and pragmatic challenges inherent in transforming this vision into some semblance of reality.
