Chapter 11, “Supranational Organizations and Technologies of Governance“, meets on March 14-15 at the Princeton Institute for International and Regional Studies.

Program for March 14 (open to the public):

Organizer: Marc Fleurbaey, Robert E. Kuenne Professor in Economics and Humanistic Studies, Professor of Public Affairs and the University Center for Human Values, Princeton University

March 14, 2016 | 8 a.m. – 6:30 p.m. | 219 Aaron Burr Hall
This conference will bring together scholars who are part of the International Panel on Social Progress (IPSP) to discuss how supranational organizations (SOs) and the transnational technologies of governance they employ are arenas of power and contestation. They have served as ongoing forms of domination reflecting asymmetries of public and private power. Yet they have also served as vehicles for social progress. The challenge is to build on the latter to constrain the former, notably those asymmetries associated with forms of colonialism and hegemony. Open to the public.
