A Review of Multilateralism and International Organizations
OEF Research is proud to host Global Governance, a quarterly academic journal published by Lynne Rienner Publishers in association with The Academic Council on the United Nations System (ACUNS). For a five-year term, (2014-2018), OEF Research serves as the editorial office and coordinator of the editorial team, with Roberta Spivak acting as managing editor. Although OEF Research manages the process, the editors enjoy complete editorial freedom.
Global Governance is concerned with challenges that extend beyond country borders, such as climate change and economic instability, and how best to address them through international organizations. As an interdisciplinary journal for both scholars and practitioners, we publish articles that examine the impact of international institutions and multilateral processes on a vast array of topics including:
- economic development
- peace and security
- human rights
- international law
- healthcare
- preservation of the environment
The Global Governance journal has an Impact Factor of 1.031 and is ranked #31 (of 86) in International Relations (2014 Thomson Reuters Journal Citation Reports: 5-year Impact Factor)
