Abstract: This research study aims to look into what authority is in contrast to power and persuasion and how it becomes established in global governance. It focuses on the multiplication of authorities under the hypothesis that authority, its nature, functions, and grounds of legitimation have changed and developed over time. Thus, there are multiple and new authorities at play in global governance, which go beyond the state, the public-private authority constellation, and the simple command-and-obedience framework of solid authority.
