Kurzbeschreibung:
Global agricultural governance serves as a laboratory for analyzing the three main dynamics in transnational relations: the rise of new actors, the proliferation of new governance approaches, and the intensified and complex interaction between different levels of governance. The project outlines a new research agenda on public and private norm entrepreneurship (Schwindenhammer 2016, Schwindenhammer 2017), norm contestation (e.g., Schwindenhammer et al. 2017), and the rise of transformative technologies in global agricultural governance. The project has three purposes: i) to serve the need for more qualitative comparative research, ii) to locate agricultural governance in the context of conceptual debates in International Relations (IR) about new approaches to governance, critical norm research, norm diffusion and the role of norm entrepreneurship, and iii) to outline future areas of research in the light of the empirical results.
