Global crises place extraordinary strain on international cooperation. Benjamin Faude and Kenneth W. Abbott examine how global governance performs under pressure, arguing that resilience depends on combining robust institutions with flexible arrangements, effective leadership, and the capacity to learn and adapt during crises
This month marks ten years since the adoption of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. Yet there is little cause for celebration: progress has been dismal. Benjamin Faude and Jack Taggart argue that the governance of the goals has undermined progress. They warn that rather than achieving transformative change, such governance risks entrenching the beleaguered status quo
Lecturer in International Relations, School of Social and Political Sciences, University of Glasgow
Before joining Glasgow, Benjamin worked at Newcastle University, at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), and at the WZB Berlin Social Science Center.
He has also held visiting positions at the University of California at Berkeley, at Vrije Universiteit Brussels, at the University of Bamberg, at Free University Berlin, and at Charles University in Prague.
Benjamin's research seeks to better understand how institutional complexity affects the prospects of effective and legitimate global governance.
The results of his research have been published in leading international journals such as International Studies Quarterly, International Theory, The Review of International Organizations, Global Policy, and Global Environmental Politics.
