This booklet explains how global policies are made by examining the different forms of power, institutions, economic forces, and social influences that shape international decisions. It looks at the roles of national governments, the United Nations, global economic institutions, corporations, finance, experts, civil society, media, and public pressure, while also considering inequality in influence among countries and other actors. It then applies this framework to major global issues including economic development, trade, climate and resources, security, technology, human rights, and human wellbeing, before considering ways the global policy system could become more cooperative, representative, and effective. An appendix provides a closer examination of economic power and the networks through which wealth, capital, corporations, finance, and governments can influence policy.
