It is equally common to note the failures of the international institutions the world relies on to address such challenges. As the acclaimed 2013 book \u003ci\u003eGridlock\u003c\/i\u003e argued, the world increasingly needs effective international cooperation, but multilateralism appears unable to deliver it in the face of deepening interdependence, rising multipolarity, and the growing complexity and fragmentation that characterise the global order.\u003c\/p\u003e The \u003ci\u003eGridlock\u003c\/i\u003e authors have now partnered with a group of leading experts to offer a trenchant reassessment of elements of the argument. Comparing anomalies and exceptions to multilateral dysfunction across a number of spheres of world politics, \u003ci\u003eBeyond Gridlock\u003c\/i\u003e explores seven pathways through and beyond gridlock. While multilateralism continues to fall short, \u003ci\u003eBeyond Gridlock\u003c\/i\u003e identifies systematic means to avoid or resist these forces and turn them into collective solutions. This book offers a vital new perspective on world politics as well as a practical guide for positive change in global policy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eTable of contents\u003cbr\u003e Preface\u003cbr\u003e Abbreviations\u003cbr\u003e Tables and Figures\u003cbr\u003e Author biographies\u003cbr\u003e 1 Introduction: Pathways beyond Gridlock\u003cbr\u003e Thomas Hale and David Held\u003cbr\u003e 2 Finance: Risk and Progress\u003cbr\u003e Kevin Young\u003cbr\u003e 3 Monetary Policy: Making Fragmentation Work\u003cbr\u003e Camila Villard Duran\u003cbr\u003e 4 Trade: Gridlock and Resilience\u003cbr\u003e Andreas Klasen\u003cbr\u003e 5 Investment: Contestation and Transformation\u003cbr\u003e Taylor St John\u003cbr\u003e 6 Energy: A Fundamental Transition?\u003cbr\u003e Ann Florini\u003cbr\u003e 7 Humanitarianism: Stagnation, Fragmentation, and Possibilities\u003cbr\u003e Kyle McNally and James Orbinski\u003cbr\u003e 8 Human rights: Leveraging Compliance\u003cbr\u003e Tom Pegram\u003cbr\u003e 9 Health: New Leadership for Devastating Challenges\u003cbr\u003e Garrett Wallace Brown and David Held\u003cbr\u003e 10 Climate: From Gridlock to Catalyst\u003cbr\u003e Thomas Hale\u003cbr\u003e 11 Cyber security: Gridlock and Innovation\u003cbr\u003e Lucas Kello\u003cbr\u003e 12 Weapons of Mass Destruction: Incremental Steps\u003cbr\u003e Michael Clarke\u003cbr\u003e 13 Conclusion: Breaking the Cycle of Gridlock\u003cbr\u003e Thomas Hale and David Held\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Politics \u0026amp; government [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Politics \u0026amp; government\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Politics%20\u0026amp;%20government%20%5BJP%5D%22\"\u003eJP\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Polity","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52441785696536,"sku":"9781509515714","price":46.85,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781509515714.jpg?v=1785025037","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/beyond-gridlock-hardback-9781509515714","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
