摘要

国际非政府组织在全球治理中发挥着越来越重要的作用。在没有强制能力的情况下,国际非政府组织必须建立自己的权威,让人们听到它们的声音,最好是在全球治理中发挥影响力。然而,我们对国际非政府组织如何在实践中建立和维护其权威知之甚少。我们认为,使命宣言描述了非政府组织如何向其受众发表权威声明。根据对国际非政府组织和全球治理的现有研究,我们确定了权威的五个维度:问责性、代表性、有效性、合法性和普遍道德。我们分析了2003年至2013年11个领先的国际非政府组织(高地位)和46个其他国际非政府组织(低地位)的使命宣言。我们发现,领先的国际非政府组织更有可能强调问责性和合法性,而其他国际非政府组织更有可能强调代表性。我们的发现开辟了一个令人兴奋的研究议程,以研究全球公民社会中的权威关系是如何构建的。

The Stories They Tell: What INGO Mission Statements Reveal about their Authority
ABSTRACT International nongovernmental organizations (INGOs) play an increasingly important role in global governance. Without coercive capacities, INGOs must build their authority to be heard, and ideally, influential in global governance. However, we know little about how INGOs build and defend their authority in practice. We argue that mission statements characterise how INGOs make authority claims to their audiences. Drawing on existing research on INGOs and global governance, we identify five dimensions of authority: accountability, representativeness, effectiveness, legality, and universal morality. We analyse the mission statements of 11 leading INGOs (high status) and 46 other INGOs (low status) from 2003 and 2013. We find that leading INGOs are more likely to emphasise accountability and legality while other INGOs are more likely to highlight representativeness. Our findings open up an exciting research agenda to study how authority relationships are constructed in global civil society.

期刊介绍: Global Society covers the new agenda in global and international relations and encourages innovative approaches to the study of global and international issues from a range of disciplines. It promotes the analysis of transactions at multiple levels, and in particular, the way in which these transactions blur the distinction between the sub-national, national, transnational, international and global levels. An ever integrating global society raises a number of issues for global and international relations which do not fit comfortably within established "Paradigms" Among these are the international and global consequences of nationalism and struggles for identity, migration, racism, religious fundamentalism, terrorism and criminal activities.
