Summary / Abstract (Note) | THE WORLD faces a range of problems, among them new infectious diseases, growing poverty, environmental pollution, climate change, depletion of vital non-renewable energy resources, and dwindling reserves of drinking water. These problems affect everyone in the world and cause wide-scale concern, with civil society being one of the channels through which such concern is expressed.1 It is increasingly often argued that such problems cannot be solved without a system of global governance that would be based on values shared by people of all cultures, political views, religious beliefs, and philosophical principles. Not accidentally, this is one of the issues on the agenda of the United Nations - the organization has a specialized body for this purpose, the Commission on Global Governance. |
