International organizations such as the World Health Organization and the United Nations have never been so important in addressing global challenges. This new textbook from bestselling author John McCormick introduces readers to nature, structure and purpose of international organizations. It considers both their historical development and their place in the contemporary world, along with the problems they face and solutions they offer. Taking a broad, issues-based approach, this book: - Goes beyond the conventional focus on topics such as security, finance, and the environment - Covers today's most urgent topics such as global health, migration, and technology - Gives space to international non-governmental organizations (INGOs) and non-state actors, including private foundations and multinational enterprises - Offers readers a foundation in the main international relations theories - Links international relations to broader themes in global and international studies - Discusses a range of IGOs and INGOs based in different parts of the world, approaching international cooperation from a number of political and regional perspectives. Assuming no prior knowledge of the subject, International Organizations uses a range of pedagogical tools and visual features to engage readers and guide their understanding, including: - Line and bar graphs illustrating trends and comparative data - Tables listing major international organizations or treaties and their purposes - Regional and world maps illustrating different levels of wealth, democracy, and development, as well as migration flows, and how these all relate to the work of relevant IOs - Boxed features focusing in more detail on chapter topics and making cross-chapter comparisons - Chapter previews and list of key terms. This contemporary survey of the work of international organizations is an essential text for those studying global politics and governance.
