The Centre for the Study of Global Governance
is a leading international institution dedicated to research, analysis
and dissemination about global governance. Based at the
London School of Economics, the Centre aims to increase
understanding and knowledge of global issues, to
encourage interaction between academics, policy makers,
journalists and activists, and to propose solutions.
The Centre for the Study of Global Governance (CsGG) was founded by
Lord Professor Meghnad Desai in 1992. Since then, the Centre has grown
considerably and the pioneering work of Meghnad Desai has
been augmented by the work of Anthony Giddens, David Held and
Mary Kaldor as well as a group of talented younger scholars.
Today it is led by co-directors Graham Wallas Professor of
Political Science David Held and Professor of Global Governance Mary
Kaldor.
