This groundbreaking book is a study of that promise, and of the
real impact of this world government. It discusses what
systems global institutions have, and have not done to keep their
promise, and examines whether the system will serve the world's
least-advantaged, or marginalize them further.

This book focuses on whether it is the 'economists and
political philosophers of the rich', or the social movements of
the disadvantaged that are most likely to influence the world's
lawmakers, and the processes by which they will complete the next
generation of multilateral institutions.
