Chair

  • Peter Haas, Professor of political science, University of Massachusetts at Amherst (USA).

Over the last thirty years an international system of governance has formed. This is the time to discuss its coherence and internal and external synergies. Beyond the creation of a global environmental organization, the debate on governance must focus on the nature of international regimes and their place in the global system, with the objective of rebalancing the international architecture.
