Research subject International Institutions

Research at this department on international institutions involves the formal and informal rules that prescribe the way actors should cooperate and interact in the international system.

Our research focuses on the patterns, causes, and consequences of ever more complex international institutions. International institutions have important consequences for the outcomes of global governance, including the justice, legitimacy, and effectiveness of global policy solutions.
