5. What Makes Global Governance Different?

Kaskelen 2023

6. There are no neat categories, even though traditional IGOs are often organized as if there were. The conventional strategies of

adding responsibilities to already-existing
organizations and of creating new IGOs to address new dimensions of problems
have each been used.
The puzzle for students of global governance is how much importance to accord
to states versus nonstate actors and how much authority is delegated to each.
Kaskelen 2023

7. Finally, there is no single model of global governance to fit all issues and policy problems, just as there is no single

structure of global governance but a
multitude of approaches that do not fit together in an elegant way.
