Governance By Other Means: Rankings As Regulatory Systems, Judith G. Kelley, Beth A. Simmons
All Faculty Scholarship
This article takes the challenges of global governance and legitimacy seriously and looks at new ways in which international organizations (IOs) have attempted to ‘govern’ without explicit legal or regulatory directives. Specifically, we explore the growth of global performance indicators as a form of social control that appears to have certain advantages even as states and civil society actors push back against international regulatory authority.
