The authors investigate 'complex multilateralism' by studying the relationship between three multilateral economic institutions (the IMF, World Bank, and World Trade Organization), and three global social movements (environmental, labour and women's movements). They provide a rich comparative analysis of the institutional response to social movement pressure, tracing institutional change, policy modification and social movement tactics as they struggle to influence the rules and practices governing trade, finance and development regimes. The contest to shape global governance is increasingly being conducted upon a number of levels and amongst a diverse set of actors. Analysing a unique breadth of institutions and movements, this book charts an important part of that contest.Cambridge studies in international relations ;71.International trade agenciesInternational tradeSocial aspectsInternational tradePolitical aspectsInternational tradeEnvironmental aspectsSocial movementsInternational trade agencies.International tradeSocial aspects.International tradePolitical aspects.International tradeEnvironmental aspects.Social movements.337.1O'Brien Robert1963-510364O'Brien Robert1963-510364UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910820833003321Contesting global governance3955128UNINA
