Global governance is another subject that occupies much of the literature in the discussion of global
politics. The emergence of issues like global terrorism, interstate wars, climate change, human trafficking,
and spread of nuclear weapons resulted to the reiteration of global governance. Reflecting on the
discussion that we had about the political dimension of globalization, how does global governance affect
the dominance of the nation-state? Explain.

Let us first define global governance. Global governance is a system in which the people of the globe,
all human beings, have direct and democratic authority over their own local economies and nation states.
Despite its name, global governance does not imply the establishment of a single global government, but
rather a rise in political collaboration among states and other transnational organizations. The need for it is
growing as our world becomes more interconnected economically, politically, and socially than at any
time in human history. As a result, events in one nation might have far-reaching consequences in another
halfway around the world. As a result, it makes more sense for countries to become engaged in the affairs
of other countries, and the level of collaboration between nations is rising, as cooperation and alliances
are increasingly required to ensure a country's future. No country can be totally self-sufficient, even in
fundamental areas, as it once was, and as a result, global governance is expected to expand in the near
future. Global governance, broadly defined, seeks to deliver global public goods, including peace and
security, justice and dispute resolution mechanisms, functioning markets, and consistent standards for
commerce and industry.

Simply put, the world is much smaller than it was previously. It is quite simple for any given nation to
communicate with, trade with, establish diplomatic relations with, and cause military difficulties with other
states. As a result, our politics and economics require more international collaboration than ever before. No
country is an autocracy, and even commonplace things like mutually compatible safe regulations are
required for efficient and productive diplomacy, as well as a consensus and rule of law based international
diplomacy paradigm rather than an imperial and militaristic one. Furthermore, the idea of global
governance refers to a specific quality of international regulation by demanding a shared goods-oriented
explanation of norms and standards. As a result, international cooperation implies more than only state
coordination to develop a mode of interaction. Rather, international regulation frequently aims actively at
reaching normatively loaded political goals in dealing with shared international challenges. In this view,
governance implies, at least in a primitive form, certain shared interests and goal orientations beyond the
nation-state, without, of course, dismissing the permanence of fundamental conflicts. In addition, the
emergence of global multi-level governance, and the ensuing transformation of statehood and its impact
on the concept of democracy, as well as critical responses to these developments. So yet, none of these
topics of discussion and inquiry have produced definitive conclusions, but they do identify promising areas
for future investigation.
