{"ModuleCode":"GL2103","ModuleTitle":"Global Governance","Department":"Political Science","ModuleDescription":"This module examines the changing nature of political authority in contemporary world politics. Drawing on what social scientists have to say about international institutions and global governance, it asks critical questions with implications for global order, peace, and justice. To what extent has globalization undermined state sovereignty? Who manages global problems in a post-sovereign world, and by what authority? Through what kinds of institutions and practices are global actors governed? Who and what escapes global governance? How should global problems be managed?","ModuleCredit":"4","Workload":"2-1-0-2-5","Prerequisite":"GL1101E","ExamDate":"2015-11-26T13:00+0800","ExamDuration":"P2H","ExamVenue":"MPSH5","Types":["Module","UEM"],"Lecturers":["Kevin Mcgahan"],"IVLE":[{"Announcements":null,"Forums":[],"Workbins":[],"Webcasts":[],"Gradebooks":[],"Polls":[],"Multimedia":[],"LessonPlan":[],"ID":"44887cc2-a844-48a8-8534-beb121d18f28","CourseLevel":"1","CourseCode":"GL2103","CourseName":"GLOBAL GOVERNANCE","CourseDepartment":"","CourseSemester":"Semester 1","CourseAcadYear":"2015/2016","CourseOpenDate":"/Date(1432742400000+0800)/","CourseOpenDate_js":"2015-05-28T00:00:00","CourseCloseDate":"/Date(1450454340000+0800)/","CourseCloseDate_js":"2015-12-18T23:59:00","CourseMC":"0","isActive":"Y","Permission":"S","Creator":{"UserID":null,"Name":"Kevin Mcgahan","Email":null,"Title":null,"UserGuid":"39a63738-9d23-412b-b9c9-8c28fe1b73bc","AccountType":null},"hasGradebookItems":false,"hasTimetableItems":true,"hasGroupsItems":false,"hasClassGroupsForSignUp":false,"hasGuestRosterItems":false,"hasClassRosterItems":false,"hasWeblinkItems":false,"hasLecturerItems":true,"hasDescriptionItems":true,"hasReadingItems":false,"hasAnnouncementItems":false,"hasProjectGroupItems":false,"hasProjectGroupsForSignUp":false,"hasConsultationItems":false,"hasConsultationSlotsForSignUp":false,"hasLessonPlanItems":false,"Badge":0,"BadgeAnnouncement":0,"WebLinks":[],"Lecturers":[{"ID":"41e94b6b-2a9b-4521-870c-5c56232ce1d7","User":{"UserID":null,"Name":"Kevin Mcgahan","Email":null,"Title":null,"UserGuid":"39a63738-9d23-412b-b9c9-8c28fe1b73bc","AccountType":null},"Role":"Lecturer ","Order":1,"ConsultHrs":null}],"Descriptions":[{"ID":"1e5f053b-8835-4692-be49-41f07234cfff","Title":"Learning Outcomes","Description":"Description:
\nThis interdisciplinary module introduces students to basic theoretical concepts and contemporary challenges of global governance. The class, moreover, critically examines debates on how particular actors can or should cooperate to address significant global collective-action problems, ranging from security to human rights to the environment.
\n
\nThe class is divided into three parts. First, the module critically examines definitions of global governance and how this concept and phenomenon has developed over time. The module, second, explores actors and pillars of global governance, applying key concepts to traditional issues areas of global governance – namely, security and economic development. Lastly, it engages contemporary issues, contestations, and debates related to global governance, including humanitarian intervention, transnational migration, pandemic diseases, and climate change. It also concludes by contemplating whether a just world order – one that balances concerns about legitimacy, accountability and effectiveness – is possible in a global era.
\n
\nGoals:
\nBy taking this module, students will learn to apply basic theoretical concepts related to global governance, such as power, legitimacy and international cooperation. Furthermore, students will develop a critical understanding of sovereignty as well as the role of states vis-a-vis non-state actors in governing global collective-action problems. Students will, moreover, hone their communication and analytical skills through writing assignments and class participation.
