Research at the Institute of International Relations (IIR) focuses on theoretical and empirical analyses of global governance, international institutions and organizations. In particular, we work on questions of security policy, including new security threats, analyses of the diffusion of regulation and norms, and the significance of global network formation or new governance actors.
