Abstract
During the past decade there has been a rapid emergence of new forms of global governance
architectures seeking to address grand challenges. International organizations and other strong
actors in the global scene have been setting up new, ambitious, open-ended and solutionoriented
architectures. Aiming to address some specifically identified grand challenges the
new governance architectures are creating broader and sustained conditions for problemsolving.
But the extent to which they are able to generate the expected transformative change
at the domestic level is an empirical question that remains open. This paper provides a
framework for analyzing that by focusing on three main mediating factors at the domestic
level, namely, the knowledge absorptive capacity of domestic actors, their organizational
capacity, and their legitimacy as the communicative capacity with which they articulate needs
and visions about how go about it.
