Introduction: Learning in Modern International Society -- Constructing International Politics -- Cases of International Learning -- The World Bank and Global Poverty Alleviation -- Global Governance and the International Criminal Court -- Global Civil Society and the Prevention of Armed Conflict -- Findings: Changing and Adapting International Norms and Values.
Claudia Hofmann engages in a theoretical modelling of international learning processes and the substantiation of this model through three cases from international politics. She answers two questions: How may international actors learn as a collective? And how may the lessons learned influence actor behaviour and problem solving processes? As a foundation for answering these questions she examines the nature of actor behaviour within a social international system and integrates the diffusion of norms and values among macro-level actors.
