Authors: Anna Jaguaribe
Date: 2007
This note discusses the role of Global Public Goods in the politics of global governance. It proposes that the concept of Global Public Goods is an heuristic tool to understand how globalization has increased the number of collective problems to be resolved while short-changing the political instruments available for collective governance.
The note explores how the concept of global public goods emerges and discusses the political variables involved in creating mechanisms for their administration. It outlines some of the contradictions pertaining to the definition and management of these goods and points towards current political trends which condition the governance agenda for global public goods.
