# Summary - The concept of [[Sovereignty guarantees equal legal status to all states, but their power is deeply unequal|sovereign state]] and the global domain of policy making and administration is narrowing, challenging the prevailing methodologial nationalism. - On four scholarly spaces, the writer assessed the distance: - Teaching: more programs on global public policy. Even [[OECD]] established a Global Network of Schools of Government. - Problems and case study analysis (governance, actors, sector, concept) - The first three are commons, but the latter is interesting. Two concepts elaborated in the paper: "scale-up" model where national regulation is seen by its relevancy to explore their global governance applications. This includes addressing personnel management within IOs, questions of ethics and whistleblowing, budget transparency, and internal reform. The second category is "act local, think global". - Publishing - Just more journals on global public policy - Profession - Global actors engage HEIs in other ways. Professional staff of IOs are often adjunct faculty with unversities, as we have seen in WB and IMF. UN also has UN Universities, HQ i nTokyo, with UN Institutes worldwide. - Increasingly we see philanthropic foundations as professional partners. More recently foundation support research and teaching on international development issues. Or the Gates Foundation's role in 'global health policy.' Other names: Wellcome Trust, Sasakawa Foundation, Aga Khan Foundation, and Open Society Foundations network.
