 Governance is a service that

institutions…capable of resolving
conflicts, facilitating cooperation, or, more
generally, alleviating collective action
problems.”
International Intergovernmental
Regimes
 Defined as systems of rules, norms,
procedures, and informal practices that
constrain the behavior of governments of

because some international governance can
occur with only minimal involvement of
governments.
