Mobilizing Smart Coalitions and Negotiating Global Governance Reform
Mobilizing Smart Coalitions and Negotiating Global Governance Reform
This chapter examines global governance reform strategies based on “smart coalitions” that include all parties with relevant assets to contribute. It analyzes and draws lessons from historical reform efforts, first, those undertaken by three international commissions: the Commission on Global Governance (1995), the International Commission for Intervention and State Sovereignty (2001), and the High-Level Panel on Threats, Challenges, and Change (2004). It then scrutinizes the factors contributing to the success of two recent global governance reform coalitions: the International Campaign to Ban Landmines (1997) and the International Criminal Court (1998). Analysis shows that reform strategies based on mutual recognition of the strengths and weaknesses of the various partners involved, and with active and sustained implementation strategies, have had the greatest success.
