"James Yunker offers in this work a provocative and nuanced argument for limited world government. His account is particularly notable for the sustained attention it gives to tyranny concerns, and for its accessible application of economic principles to issues related to global poverty and economic inequality. The book should be of interest to students of global governance and international relations more generally, but also those concerned with some possible means of addressing sustainable and globally comprehensive economic development." - Luis Cabrera, Senior Lecturer in Political Theory, University of Birmingham

"Conventionalwisdomarguesthat any sort of aglobal authorityis unimaginable. James Yunker challenges this view by providing an innovative plan for a limited federal world government thatgoes beyond the United Nations, but not so far as tothreaten legitimate national interests.This bookconstitutes a welcome antidote to prevalent complacencyand wishful thinking about effective global governance in the absence of effective global government." - Thomas G. Weiss, Presidential Professor of Political Science and Director of the Ralph Bunche Institute for International Studies, The City University of New York

"At its core The Grand Convergence is a clarion call to take seriously the question of how the global system can be structured to overcome the primary problems faced by humankind. This book makes a serious and original contribution to the literature on global governance. Whether they agree with him or not, both the lay and the professional reader will find Yunker's style highly engaging and his argument challenging." - Andrew Strauss, Distinguished Professor of Law, Widener University School of Law

The Grand Convergence

'At a time of much debate over the keys to effective global governance, Simon Reich makes an important contribution. He combines insightful theory development with focused empirical work to make his case for the crucial role of global norms. A valuable book for scholars, students and the policy community.'
- Bruce W. Jentleson, Professor of Public Policy and Political Science , Duke University, USA

"Reich challenges traditional US assumptions about the need for US leadership in a balanced assessments of the demands facing both sides of the Atlantic in the 21st Century. In recognizing the decline of US legitimacy, the rise of Asia and the changing contours of the global system, he advocates a novel role for the US better suited to dealing with emergent transnational problems. A book that European scholars and policymakers should read and digest.
- Richard Higgott, Professor of Politics and International Studies and Pro Vice-Chancellor, University of Warwick, UK
This timely and insightful book nicely integrates "soft" and "hard" power considerations in evaluating the creation and promotion of global norms in many of the most important issue-areas of the 21st century. Bridging the scholarly-policy divide, it is not only a valuable contribution to the burgeoning theoretical literature on norms in international relations but will also be of great interest to students of American foreign policy, policy practitioners, and the broader public.
- Peter Andreas, Professor of Political Science and International Studies, Brown University, USA

From the reviews:“Philosophical literature on global ethics, global justice, and global institutions is currently enjoying something of a boom. … The present volume, edited by Keith Horton and Chris Roche, makes a commendable contribution to further clarifying such accounts. … Given the present state of the art in this area of research, this may well be right and appropriate. The authors have made a commendable contribution to charting the field, and they have written a stimulating book that invites much further research in this area.” (Jos Philips, Ethical Perspectives, Vol. 19 (1), March, 2012)
