For this episode of “Global Governance Beyond Neoliberalism”, we had the pleasure of engaging with Ian Manners, professor of political science at Lund University. Manners has decades of experience in teaching in Denmark, Britain and Sweden and is widely known for his work on normative power, European integration, and global politics. His research explores how values, identities, and political norms shape international relations and governance beyond traditional state-centered approaches.
