What does responsibility mean in International Relations (IR)? This handbook brings together cutting-edge research on the critical debates about responsibility that are currently being undertaken in IR theory.This handbook both reflects upon an emerging field based on an engagement in the most crucial theoretical debates and serves as a foundational text by showing how deeply a discussion of responsibility is embedded in broader questions of IR theory and practice. Contributions cover the way in which responsibility is theorized across different approaches in IR and relevant neighboring disciplines and demonstrate how responsibility matters in different policy fields of global governance. Chapters with an empirical focus zoom in on particular actor constellations of (emerging) states, international organizations, political movements, or corporations, or address how responsibility matters in structuring the politics of global commons, such as oceans, resources, or the Internet.Providing a comprehensive overview of IR scholarship on responsibility, this accessible and interdisciplinary text will be a valuable resource for scholars and students in many fields including IR, international law, political theory, global ethics, science and technology, area studies, development studies, business ethics, and environmental and security governance.

As pillars of the post-1945 international economic system, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank are central to global economic policy debates. This book examines policy change at the IMF and the World Bank, providing a constructivist account of how and why they take up ideas and translate them into policy, creating what we call 'policy norms'. The authors compare processes of policy emergence and change and, using archival and interview data, analyse nine policy areas including gender, debt relief, and tax and pension reform. Each chapter traces the policy norm process in order to shed light on the main sources and mechanisms for norm change within international organizations. Owning Development details the strength of these policy norms which emerge, then either stabilize or decline. The book establishes valuable insights into the strength of current development policies propounded by international organizations and the possibility for change.

The concept of responsibility has emerged as central to the study of international politics. This book explores the integral role of responsibility within the context of global crises such as the responsibility to address climate change, manage financial crises, and intervene with political conflicts. Vetterlein and Hansen-Magnusson address responsibility as a conceptual tool in its own right, existing at the intersection of accountability and legitimacy and spanning across governance sectors of the environment, business, and security. This practice-based approach to the study of responsibility maps similarities and difference across policy fields and reveals the diverse moral actors responsible for negotiating responsibility. The emergence of responsibility further implicates underlying moral values and policy-making within the context of global politics. The Rise of Responsibility in World Politics addresses not only individual agency, but also how questions of community play a role in broader negotiations around the meaning of responsibility.

The Elgar Companion to The World Bank provides a comprehensive review of the past 80 years for this powerful development institution. Bringing together different theoretical approaches to studying the Bank from an expert group of scholars as well as insights from development practitioners, it presents an interdisciplinary exploration of research on the World Bank and its implications for the broader field of International Relations.Offering an all-encompassing analysis of the Bank’s activities, this Companion examines the Bank’s interactions with its organizational environment, how it undertakes tasks and pursues its mandate in different policy areas, and how it has adapted to changing environments over time. Split into seven thematic parts, contributors guide the reader through over ten policy areas, including the environment, education, health, and gender and development, discussing the impact and progress made within those areas. Furthermore, they include insightful first-hand accounts of working in this complex organization and discuss prominent criticisms of the Bank, suggesting opportunities for future reform.Providing key observations and insider perspectives, this Companion is an essential resource for scholars and researchers in the field of international relations as well as other disciplines, including development studies, organizational sociology, and international law.

Die Bundesrepublik Deutschland war bis in die 70er Jahre hinein eine traditionelle Vollbeschaftigungsgesellschaft. Vor allem die Gewerkschaften verknupften ihre politischen Strategien eng mit diesem Vollbeschaftigungsmodell. Sie sind daher stark von den Auflosungstendenzen der traditionellen Vollbeschaftigungsgesellschaft betroffen. Das Buch beschreibt zunachst die sozialen, okonomischen und politischen Wandlungsprozesse und analysiert anschliessend die Auswirkungen auf die Gewerkschaften ebenso wie deren Reaktionen. Die Gewerkschaften - so lasst sich zeigen - sind politikfahig. Weitere riskante Anpassungsstrategien sind jedoch notwendig, um den Wandel bestehen zu konnen.
