How Ad Hoc Coalitions Deinstitutionalize International Institutions

This is a podcast with Malte Brosig (University of the Witwatersrand) and John Karlsrud (NUPI). The conversation is led by Ole Jacob Sending (NUPI).

The role of the UN has changed a lot over the years, and different UN organizations are not able to handle many of the world's crises in the way that the member states intended the UN to do. Malte Brosig and John Karlsrud has published a paper called "How do ad hoc coalitions deinstitutionalize international institutions?" in the journal International Affairs, and in it, they discuss how different governing mechanisms are emerging as a result, in part at least, because the UN is not functioning in the way that it was intended.
