An excellent article by @benjaminfaude.bsky.social and @jacktaggart.bsky.social looking at the UN Sustainable Development Goals at 10 - and why progress so far isn't something we have cause to celebrate.

“There is little cause for celebration: progress has been dismal.” Excellent article by @benjaminfaude.bsky.social @jacktaggart.bsky.social who argue that the global governance of the Sustainable Development Goals has undermined progress. theloop.ecpr.eu/the-sustaina...

An excellent read that's provocative but also hopeful from @benjaminfaude.bsky.social

“Hard times can surprisingly lead to better global governance” As the UN General Assembly celebrates its 80th session @benjaminfaude.bsky.social asks - is this system doomed to fail, or is there an opportunity for reform? Excellent read in @scotnational.bsky.social bit.ly/46l4F8k

New, somewhat bleak, piece from me on the decline of global governance: doi.org/10.1017/S089... Part of a Roundtable on Global Governance in Hard Times with @benjaminfaude.bsky.social, @ninareiners.bsky.social, @yoramhaftel.bsky.social, @stephofmann.bsky.social, John Karlsrud, & Julia Morse

New Roundtable "Global Governance in Hard Times" in Ethics & International Affairs. We are interested in whether the ‘drift’ of FIGOs and the proliferation of LCIs indicate the decline of global governance, or its adaptation to a significantly altered environment. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

The Sustainable Development Goals at 10: Celebration or Commiseration? Please join us for a half-day special section launch event marking the tenth anniversary of the UN’s 2030 Agenda on Friday 12th September, 14:00 – 17:00 (BST), Bishop’s Dining Suite, Durham Castle & Online. Details here:

Glad to see our introduction to the SI 'Global Governance in Hard Times' out. We develop the 'Innovation Thesis' and the 'Decline Thesis' as two analytical ideal types that help us to think systematically about where global governance is headed. Take a look at all contributions at the E&IA website.

It's a very timely article!

We build on Abbott & Faude's Hybrid Institutional Complex emphasising the socio-economic content not just institutional form. Huge thanks to @benjaminfaude.bsky.social & @jacktaggart.bsky.social for encouraging us to write this & Eva-Maria Nag for steering us through with @globalpolicy.bsky.social

Ahead of the 10th anniversary of the adoption of the SDGs, Julija Loginovic & @docstushi.bsky.social argue that the institutional diversity of the SDG HIC constitutes a way to reorganise inter-and intra-class relations to co-opt a greater variety of policy actors at multiple transnational scales.
