About the product

This ground-breaking book extrapolates the concept of 'public goods' from the national level to the global level transforming the dimensions of the debate and elevating the concept to a new and urgent plane of importance. Global Public Goods explores two main questions: first, whether and to what extent the concept of global public goods is useful in describing and analysing global challenges and second, whether feasible policy options and strategies that would apply across the board to ensure a more reliable supply of global public goods - from market efficiency to equity, health, environmental sustainability and peace - could be found.
