Anticipating Governance in the Coming Multi-Order World

The project rests on the premise that the international system is transforming into one consisting of several international orders (Multi-Order World), which will fundamentally alter the conditions for global order and governance. AGMOW will investigate the character and development of four existing or emerging international orders and their cooperation in three urgent governance challenges: autonomous weapons, global health & climate change. The project will assess the prospects for a new form of global governance, suitable for the coming multi-order world, which we conceptualize as "Multi-Order Governance". The project is structured by a new innovative theoretical and conceptual approach, using mixed sequenced methods - process-tracing, conceptual mapping, narrative methods and foresight analysis to assess the development of the ordering domains (orders and governance fields) and their ability to cooperate and stay resilient in a rapidly changing global environment
