Thomas Hale and David Held
Thomas Hale is Associate Professor of Public Policy (Global Public Policy) at the Blavatnik School of Government, University of Oxford.
David Held is Master of University College, and Professor of Politics and International Relations, at Durham University.‘Beyond Gridlock is a powerful, authoritative, timely, and
ultimately sobering sequel to Gridlock … Required reading
for all scholars and practitioners aiming to strengthen the global
cooperation that is vital for the world’s survival and sustainable
development.’
Jeffrey D. Sachs, Columbia University ‘Hale and Held's overarching
vision, and their collaborators' deep-dive into specific
challenges, provide the frontier, key statements on global
gridlock. Everyone needs to read Hale and Held.’
Danny Quah, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, NUS ‘Getting us
beyond current gridlock will require every good idea we can muster.
This book shows the way forward.’
John Gerard Ruggie, Harvard University ‘Hale and Held unfold a
fascinating map of multiple pathways of change that are never
prescribed, sometimes mutually reinforcing, always
challenging.’
Christiana Figueres, Executive Secretary UNFCCC 2010-2016
"As Hale and Held see it, the institutions of global governance are
inadequate, but small innovations and experiments in
cooperation—often pursued regionally, in coalition with civil
society groups, or by transnational technical elites—show
promise."
