This Socio-Economic Review (SER) special issue calls for contributions that scrutinize attempted changes to global governance arrangements and how these affirm or challenge the underlying international order. The agents driving such change include states, multinational companies, the financial sector, civil society, and epistemic communities competing over the nature and characteristics of the emerging order. These dynamics of contestation and the resources—material as well as normative—that are being poured into the reform processes offer ample analytical opportunity for generating novel theoretical and empirical arguments on global-level institutional change. The current juncture also offers leeway for comparisons: between the strategies and priorities of different countries or social actors, and between present and past attempts at global-level institutional change.
Interested authors are welcome to submit one-page abstracts for potential submissions by 14 July 2023 by email to the Guest Editors. Subject to interest and availability, Guest Editors may then invite selected authors to an online paper development workshop in November or December 2023.
