Global Governance: Looking Ahead, 2006-2010‪.‬

As is customary, new journal editors open their term of office with a statement of visions and aspirations for the journal that they have undertaken to promote. The following statement sets out the aims, conceptions, and practices that the incoming editorial team brings to Global Governance. Before setting out our own stall, however, we must acknowledge and applaud the excellent work of our predecessors. In just ten years, the initial two editorial partnerships have created in Global Governance a world-class venue for intellectual and policy debates about one of the key political issues of our time--that of managing a more global world. Our editorship faces the great opportunities that we do thanks to a decade of inspired and dedicated efforts: first by Roger A. Coate and Craig Murphy; and then by W. Andy Knight, S. Neil MacFarlane, and Thomas G. Weiss. The outgoing trio and their assiduous managing editor, Tanya Casperson, have also gone to every length to facilitate a smooth transition to our editorship. It is an honor--and no small challenge--to follow such class acts.
