Analysis Across Actors and Levels
摘要
This chapter analyzes the key findings using the theoretical framework we developed in Chapter 2 . Importantly, we highlight important differences among the levels of global governance and show the shortcomings of norm robustness as a concept for the study of norm translation and implementation. The robustness of a norm cluster cannot be explained well by contestation, deliberate norm violation, or intended non-compliance. Rather, other policy priorities and lack of capacities account for the lack of implementation and the relatively low impact of inclusion in the lives of persons with disabilities. We call this norm evasion. The multi-level approach implies a sea change in the study of International Law and IR, which need to leave their traditional confines behind. They should extend their reach and use more multi-method research to study all governance levels, as well as the interaction among them. In the final section, we also provide recommendations on how to address diversity in humanitarian action.
