The effectiveness of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) international regime to govern anti-money laundering (AML) and counterterrorist financing (CTF) has been questioned since its establishment. In theory, the FATF’s network of multilevel actors should protect the integrity of the international financial system. The empirical evidence in this article shows that the FATF has made a difference

African-Led Peace Support Operations in a declining period of new UN Peacekeeping Operations Global Governance: A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations (IF 0.8) Pub Date : 2023-06-08 Andrew E. Yaw Tchie
The United Nations is known to be the preeminent body to authorize and oversee international peacekeeping missions; however, new forms of African-led Peace Support Operations (PSO s) are increasingly common, innovative, and context-specific. This paper examines the evolution of African-led PSO s and argues that African-led PSO s are filling a vacuum and taking on responsibilities once assumed by the

This article makes three important arguments. The first is that one of the most crucial factors in explaining the various outcomes of UN peacekeeping cases over the past seventy-five years can be found in the role of contingencies: the idiosyncratic circumstances that have combined to enable success or failure. The second is that these peacekeeping missions critically demonstrate the importance of

Looking back over the past seventy-five years of UN peacekeeping, the most enduring question has been: Is peacekeeping effective? Historically, most peacekeeping operations have been. However, peacekeeping is currently suffering from a significant trust deficit. One important factor that differentiates contemporary peacekeeping operations with a stabilization mandate from the historic record is the

In the Shadow of Peace: Sexual Exploitation, Abuse, and Accountability in UN Peacekeeping Global Governance: A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations (IF 0.8) Pub Date : 2023-06-08 Audrey L. Comstock
Despite decades of success, abuse has pervaded UN peacekeeping. This article argues that there has been a combination of incremental, conditional, and tenuous accountability for UN peacekeeping personnel accused of perpetrating sexual exploitation and abuse against civilians. This article argues that the relationship with accountability has been shaped by the reliance on troop-contributing countries

Retaining Flexibility: Dag Hammarskjöld, the 1958 Summary Study, and the History of UN Peacekeeping Global Governance: A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations (IF 0.8) Pub Date : 2023-06-08 Brian Drohan
Although UN peace operations began with unarmed observer missions in 1948–1949, the first armed force—the UN Emergency Force (UNEF)—was deployed in 1956 due to the Suez crisis. Scholars and practitioners have since interpreted the UN Secretariat’s 1958 study of that experience, called the Summary Study, as a foundational text in the history of UN peacekeeping because it supposedly codified the key

Sexual Violence and Peacekeeping Global Governance: A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations (IF 0.8) Pub Date : 2023-06-08 Karin Johansson, Anne-Kathrin Kreft
In the 1990s, conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV) started to transform into a matter of international security. Today, this is reflected in the Women, Peace and Security framework, which has left an impression also on UN peacekeeping mandates and operations, as well as on global protection imperatives. Simultaneously, academic attention to CRSV has skyrocketed in the past two decades. This article

The African Development Bank and the Accountability Policy Norm: Endogenous Change, Norm Conformance, and the Development Finance Regime Complex Global Governance: A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations (IF 0.8) Pub Date : 2023-03-15 Susan Park
Established as a multilateral development bank (MDB) funded by African states, the African Development Bank (AfDB) is one of many similar international organizations (IO s) comprising the development finance regime complex. Arguably, states and policy elites recreate similar IO s that enable “norm conformance” within the complex. This is demonstrated through the AfDB’s adoption of the Independent Recourse

City Governments as Political Actors of Global Governance: The (Winding) Road of UCLG Toward Multilateral Recognition Global Governance: A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations (IF 0.8) Pub Date : 2023-03-15 Ricardo Martinez
The transnational rise of city networks is increasingly associated with the emergence of hybrid configurations beyond the public sector that contribute to technocratic decisionmaking processes and the depoliticization of global governance. This article takes issue with this argument. By analyzing the legitimation strategy used by the global city network United Cities and Local Governments (UCLG) vis-à-vis

Beyond Generations: An Alternative Approach to Categorizing Peace Missions Global Governance: A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations (IF 0.8) Pub Date : 2022-12-21 Sara Hellmüller, Marie Lobjoy, Xiang-Yun Rosalind Tan
Authors commonly categorize peace missions according to different generations: first-generation missions serving as interposition forces to monitor a cease-fire, second-generation missions with multidimensional mandates, and third-generation missions with enforcement mandates. While the generation typology is useful to show the development of peace missions over time, this article points to four main

Emergence and Structuring of the Clean Energy Regime Complex Global Governance: A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations (IF 0.8) Pub Date : 2022-12-21 Kathryn Chelminski, Liliana B. Andonova, Yixian Sun
While many have observed a regime complex for global clean energy governance, research has not yet accorded sufficient attention to the interplay of multiple streams of politics that have led to the structuring of overlapping governance initiatives and, ultimately, the articulation of a set of norms that hold this regime complex together. To understand these dynamics, this article argues that with

Article VII of the Biological Weapons Convention (BWC) requires states to provide emergency assistance in the case of a deliberate bioweapons attack on any state party to the convention. Since no operational mechanism defining how to request or provide such assistance has yet been established, the painful lessons of the 2014–2016 West African Ebola crisis returned this topic to the agenda of the BWC

In international politics, governments may tend to favor countries with which they share some degree of cultural affinity. Moreover, international organizations can strengthen solidarity among their members. Not surprisingly, Muslim countries, which came together under the umbrella of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), frequently state that they pursue Muslim solidarity in international

Offering the Carrot and Hiding the Stick?: Conceptualizing Credibility in UN Peacekeeping Global Governance: A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations (IF 0.8) Pub Date : 2022-09-19 Vanessa F. Newby
Credibility has been used to explain theories of deterrence and cooperation in international relations. In the peacekeeping environment, for what purposes should credibility be built and how can it be signaled? Despite being listed by the UN as a success factor in peace operations, our understanding of credibility in peacekeeping remains limited and focused on deterrence. This article argues that credibility

Exploring the Relationships between UN Sanctions and Mediation Global Governance: A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations (IF 0.8) Pub Date : 2022-07-04 Thomas J. Biersteker, Rebecca Brubaker, David Lanz
Sanctions and mediation are often applied simultaneously by the UN, but there has been little systematic exploration of their interrelationships. Drawing on research from the Sanctions and Mediation Project (SMP), both complications and complementarities can be identified. Sanctions can complicate mediation by fostering exclusion, emboldening nonsanctioned parties, closing mediation space, undercutting

From Aspiration to Commitment: The UN’s “Long March” toward Gender Equality Global Governance: A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations (IF 0.8) Pub Date : 2022-07-04 Kirsten Haack, Margaret P. Karns, Jean-Pierre Murray
Gender equality has long been a goal within the UN system, particularly for women’s representation among the professional staff. Yet it was more an aspiration than the target of serious action, let alone with leadership from the UN Secretary-General. It could not be addressed, however, without adequate data revealing women’s absences. Building a dataset based on Human Resources Statistics Reports has

UN Security Council Sanctions and Mediation in Libya: Synergy or Obstruction? Global Governance: A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations (IF 0.8) Pub Date : 2022-07-04 Clara Portela, Jean-Louis Romanet Perroux
The UN frequently employs sanctions on the same conflicts where it attempts mediation. While both efforts carry a UN stamp, they follow different political logics that are not always coherent with each other: sanctions are enacted by the UN Security Council, while mediation is led by a special representative/envoy of the UN Secretary-General, often on the basis of a Security Council mandate. This article

Integrating Cultural Heritage into Human Security Analysis: Advancing Human Dignity Global Governance: A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations (IF 0.8) Pub Date : 2022-03-08 Matthew S. Weinert
The UN Development Programme introduced the human security concept in 1994 to address the diversity of challenges to people’s survival, livelihood, and dignity in seven key areas: personal, food, health, economic, political, community, and environmental security. A voluminous literature has since engaged its definitional parameters, theoretical implications, and practical applications. Yet neither

The “Missing Middle”: Behind-the-Scenes Global Governance Global Governance: A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations (IF 0.8) Pub Date : 2022-03-08 Thomas G. Weiss, Rorden Wilkinson
This article focuses on the vast number of people who make global governance happen. It probes the role of the unknown people in the “middle” who are largely absent from scholarly gaze: professionals, service teams, and others who act behind the scenes. They are not at the top of public and private organizations (“global governors” in the literature), but they keep the lights on. They accomplish the

Parallel Lines in the Sand: The Impact of Parallel French Interventions on UN Stabilization Operations in Mali and the Central African Republic Global Governance: A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations (IF 0.8) Pub Date : 2022-03-08 Shannon Zimmerman
UN peace operations are often accompanied by parallel forces from individual states, regional organizations, or “coalitions of the willing.” These forces remain distinct from the UN to address security concerns outside the remit of traditional peacekeeping. The deployment of UN stabilization operations, however, has resulted in an overlap between UN and parallel forces. This article investigates the

Dynamics of Normative Change for International Nuclear Export Controls Global Governance: A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations (IF 0.8) Pub Date : 2021-12-13 Lami Kim
Like other normative systems, the international nuclear export control norms are incomplete and at times contradictory.

Peacekeeping during the Cold War was primarily, and in some cases exclusively, charged with monitoring cease-fires. This changed significantly, as peace operations evolved to include other missions (e.g., rule of law, election supervision), many under the rubric of peacebuilding. What is lacking is consideration of how the different missions affect one another, simultaneously and in sequences. This

Institutionalizing Prevention at the UN: International Organization Reform as a Site of Norm Contestation Global Governance: A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations (IF 0.8) Pub Date : 2021-06-09 Cecilia Jacob
This article assesses recent UN reforms to enhance the organization’s capacity to prevent violent conflict. These reforms target crucial inefficiencies within the UN that have hampered effective preventive and protection practices in violent conflict and atrocities. The article argues that state actors have viewed the reform process as a site of norm contestation, and negotiations have created an avenue
