'Amid all the cant about democracy and globalization, it is refreshing to have a book that takes a democratization that is global seriously, as an objective and as a process. This book adds substance to the slogan that another world is possible.' Immanuel Wallerstein 'This book provides us with as much needed critical discussion of the possibilities and limitations of this enterprise while maintaining an optimistic perspective on the future of global democratic governance.' Walden Bello 'This is a book for all of those who want to engage in practical projects of democratic change.' Michael Hardt, co-author of Empire 'This stimulating exploration of global democracy offers clarity and hope concerning one of the most urgent challenges of contemporary politics.'

Heikki Patom ki and Teivo Teivainen provide the most comprehensive guide of proposals to democratize the global institutions and create new ones.

Synopsis
'Amid all the cant about democracy and globalization, it is refreshing to have a book that takes a democratization that is global seriously, as an objective and as a process. This book adds substance to the slogan that another world is possible.' - Immanuel Wallerstein, Yale University, author of The Modern World-System 'Does it sometimes seem to you that it is impossible to transform the global system to make it more democratic? Patom"ki and Teivainen provide the most comprehensive guide to proposals to democratize global institutions and create new ones. This is a book for all those who want to engage in practical projects of democratic change.' - Michael Hardt, co-author of Empire 'Democratizing global institutions is one of the most critical challenges of our time. This book provides us with a much needed critical discussion of the possibilities and limitations of this enterprise while maintaining an optimistic perspective on the future of global democratic governance.' - Walden Bello, 2003 recipient of the Right Livelihood Award (Alternative Nobel Prize) 'This stimulating exploration of global democracy offers clarity and hope concerning one of the most urgent challenges of contemporary politics.' - Jan Aart Scholte, Centre for the Study of Globalization and Regionalization, University of Warwick As globalization proceeds apace, the scope and powers of international institutions -- the United Nations, the World Bank, the IMF, the World Trade Organization -- continue to grow. Patom"ki and Teivainen describe a wide spectrum of democratic reform proposals. They also explore innovative ideas for new institutional arrangements -- including empowering global civil society; a Global Truth Commission; referenda and a World Parliament; a debt arbitration mechanism; and global taxation. And they argue that democratic transformations at global level must involve not just democratizing institutional machinery, but revisiting the remits and powers they should have., As globalization proceeds apace international law, and the scope and powers of international institutions - the United Nations, the Bretton Woods institutions, the World Trade Organization - continue to grow. If democratic values are still an aspiration of the 21st century, then their deficit at international level must be addressed. Patomaki and Teiveinen survey the range of proposals now on the table. Ruling nothing out, they emphasis feasibility. While democratic advances do not come without political mobilization, there is little point mobilizing people for the utopian and unrealizable. This informative, thought-provoking book will be of use both to students of International Relations and Political Science, and also to campaigners concerned with the existing inequitable and unaccountable international arrangements.
