The end of the Cold War in early 1990s changed the global system from a bi-polar world to one of multiple spheres of power. More importantly, the huge advance of technology has turned perhaps fundamentally the ways we process and distribute information, while economic globalization constantly integrates an ever increasing number of people into the world economy. At the same time, humankind is no longer limited to simply modifying local and regional environments, but has entered into a phase of change of a truly planetary dimension so profound. In this context of large-scale transformations, social scientists of all stripes are concerned about the perennial question of governance, how humans regulate their affairs to achieve common goals and react to an increasing environmental threat. According to above statement, this course tries to provide an overview of the theory and practice of global governance, emphasizing issues central to sustainable development. We critically discuss how norms, rules, institutions, and practices that structure relations between states and non-state actors which contribute to solve global problems in specific issue areas, and learn about the obstacles to reaching such solutions, and how progress may occur.
