授業の目的（意義） / Importance of this course
This course introduces the students to the on-going process and results of global governance and it tries to look into new ways of improving the international community by making effective use of existing international mechanisms or even creating new ones to overcome the challenges our world is facing. While being focused on global governance the course brings to students’ attention the role of East Asia in global governance. Therefore, the three actors, China, Japan and South Korea, are analyzed from the perspective of their contribution to global governance and the factors that may hamper them from fully participating in global governance.
Multilateral cooperation has become a necessity in today’s world politics when trying to tackle issues such as poverty, terrorism, nuclear weapons proliferation, disease, regional conflict, economic stability, climate change etc. One state alone cannot address all these issues alone no matter how strong it might be. These issues cannot be solved without the interdependence of states and non-state actors that should coordinate their actions through international organizations.
Since the Second World War international institutions have been established in the areas of trade, monetary relations, several aspects of security policy, economic development, investor protection, the environment, human rights and labor standards, migration, and many others. International treaties, courts and tribunals have increased significantly in number.
In the last part of the twentieth century institutional entities such as multinational corporations and civil society organizations emerged as global actors and began to play governance-related roles that once would have been considered the sole prerogatives of states.
