The intensifying globalisation of the twenty-first century has brought a myriad of
new managerial and political challenges for governing international finance. The
return of synchronous global slowdown, mounting developed country debt, and new
economy volatility have overturned established economic certainties. Proliferating
financial crises, transnational terrorism, currency consolidation, and increasing
demands that international finance should better serve public goods such as social
and environmental security have all arisen to compound the problem.
The new public and private international institutions that are emerging to govern
global finance have only just begun to comprehend and respond to this new world.
Embracing international financial flows and foreign direct investment, in both the
private and public sector dimensions, this series focuses on the challenges and
opportunities faced by firms, national governments, and international institutions,
and their roles in creating a new system of global finance.
