This book launch presents Making Global Norms: Politics versus Science in International Organizations (Oxford University Press, 2025), by Leonard Seabrooke and Alexandros Kentikelenis. Focusing on how international organizations like the IMF create and adapt global policy scripts, the authors reveal the complex interplay between political negotiation and scientific expertise in shaping the norms that underpin globalization.
This two-day conference, convened by Carolyn Biltoft and Amalia Ribi Forclaz and supported by the Pierre du Bois Foundation and the GLO project, examines the psychological dimensions of international organisations and global governance. Drawing on concepts such as projection, transference and passionate attachments, it investigates how institutions that manage trade, war, health or aid become sites of displaced desire, grievance or fantasy. Speakers will use psychological frames to rethink institutional formation, transformation and perceived successes or failures.
