ABSTRACT
This volume contains essays written (several in conjunction with co-authors) between 1990 and 2001. All of them revolve around issues of interdependence, institutions, and governance in world politics. They address a wide variety of different problems, but they do so, I believe, from the standpoint of a consistent analytical framework. That is, there is a view of how the world works embedded in these essays, each of which reveals a different aspect of this multifaceted understanding of world politics.
