""With the advent of multinational corporations, the traditional urban service function has 'gone global.' In order to provide services to globalizing corporate clients, the offices of major financial and business service firms across the world have generated networks of work. It is the myriad of flows between office towers in different metropolitan centres that has produced a world city network. Taylor and Derudder's unique and illuminating book provides both an update and a substantial revision of the first edition that was published in 2004. It provides a comprehensive and systematic description and analysis of the world city network as the 'skeleton' upon which contemporary globalization has been built. Through an analysis of the intra-company flows of 175 leading global service firms across 526 cities in 2012, this book assesses cities in terms of their overall network connectivity, the regional configurations they form, and their changing position in the period 2000-12. Results are used to reflect on cities and city/​state relations in the context of the global ecological and economic crisis. Written by two of the foremost authorities on the subject, this book provides a much-needed mapping of the connecting relationships between world cities, and will be an invaluable resource for students of urban studies, geography, sociology and planning"--"

""'The greatest single impact of climate change could be on human migration', stated the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in 1990. Since then there has been considerable concern about the large-scale population movements that might take place because of climate change. This book examines emerging patterns of human mobility in relation to climate change, drawing on a multidisciplinary approach, including anthropology and geography. It addresses both larger, general questions and concrete local cases, where the link between climate change and human mobility is manifest and demands attention - empirically, analytically and conceptually. Among the cases explored are both historical and contemporary instances of migration in response to climate change, and together they illustrate the necessity of analyzing new patterns of movement, historic cultural images and regulation practices in the wake of new global processes"--"

"ABSTRAKTulisan ini membahas tentang Isu Kepemimpinan (leadership) dalam tata kelola iklim global yang merupakan isu yang masih jarang dikaji dalam ilmu hubungan internasional secara komprehensif mengenai apa itu kepemimpinan, siapa aktor-aktor potensial, serta signifikansi perannya dalam proses negosiasi lingkungan global, khususnya tata kelola global isu perubahan iklim. Kajian literatur ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis apa isu kepemimpinan dalam tata kelola iklim global dan bagaimana kepemimpinan mempengaruhi tata kelola iklim global. Dalam menjawab pertanyaan tersebut, tulisan ini menggunakan metode taksonomi dalam pengkajian literatur dengan memetakan literatur tentang struktur tata kelola iklim global (UNFCCC) sebelum era Paris Agreement dan setelah Paris Agreement, konsep kepemimpinan itu sendiri dalam tata kelola lingkungan global dan isu perubahan iklim, tema peran kepemimpinan dalam pembentukan rezim dan proses negosiasi perubahan iklim, khususnya Protokol Kyoto dan UNFCCC, dan memusatkan fokus perhatian pada peran kepemimpinan negara individual, terutama kepemimpinan Amerika Serikat (AS), kepemimpinan Uni Eropa, dan kepemimpinan dari negar-negara berkembang yang diantaranya merupakan negara ekonomi berkembang. Selain itu, tema kepemimpinan terhadap aktor-aktor non-negara, terutama korporasi, organisasi non-pemerintah (NGOs), dan kepemimpinan kota (cities) dalam tata kelola iklim global yang semakin terfragmentasi. Bagian ketiga tulisan akan menganalisa keterkaitan isu kepemimpinan berdasarkan tiga perspektif tradisional hubungan internasional yaitu perspektif neorealisme, liberal institusionalisme, dan konstruktivisme. Bagian akhir tulisan kemudian memuat kesimpulan atas hasil pemetaan dan analisis serta refleksi untuk kepemimpinan Indonesia dalam tata kelola isu iklim global."
