| Abstract
|
:
|
Networks are thriving in global politics. Some bring policy-makers from different countries together to share problems and to forge possible solutions, free from rules of representation, decision-making, and transparency which constrain more formal international organizations.

The key lies in how the networkis structured and what it sets out to achieve. This book presents a fascinating account of how some networks have.
