Yes, it's deeply sobering. Trump II fundamentally changes how the US engages with the world, and I fear that we can't know yet what this will entail, and what kind of world will to lead to. Nevertheless: Happy New Year, Tony!

Our paper introduces a novel conceptualization of institutional resilience focused on the capacity to both absorb and adapt to stress, and analyses what makes global governance resilient to transnational crises. We identify three dimensions for assessing the resilience of governance arrangements:

To illustrate the analytical utility of our approach, we analyze global governance responses to the Global Financial Crisis and compare them with responses to the COVID-19 pandemic. While global governance showed considerable resilience to the GFC, this was not the case in response to COVID-19.

Our analysis suggests that variation in the institutional and agentic features that our approach highlights can make a crucial contribution to explaining variation in the resilience of global governance to the stresses of transnational crises.
