Carnegie and Carson, however, maintain that international organizations that reveal sensitive information actually inhibit cooperation. Analyzing war crimes, international trade, nuclear proliferation, and foreign investment, they demonstrate that international organizations can help to address this problem by establishing systems to protect the confidentiality of sensitive information. The result is a fine book that makes a key contribution to our understanding of international organizations and global governance.' Edward Mansfield, University of Pennsylvania 'With a compelling theory backed by comprehensive evidence, this book overturns the conventional view of how international organizations function ... From the WTO legal hearings on airplane subsidies to the defense of victims targeted in ethnic cleansing, rich case studies highlight when and how international organizations help states manage information. Statistical analysis reveals why this matters - for trade flows, justice, and understanding international cooperation.' Christina L. Davis, Harvard University 'One of the most interesting and creative books written about international organizations in recent memory. It made me think about an old issue in a new way ... A must read for anyone interested in political institutions and global governance.' Matthew Fuhrmann, Texas A&M University 'A masterful new book ... A great example of modern social science ...'
