Abstract
This paper aims to conceive a world order against global risks. National risks easily cross national borders in an age of globalization. Global risks. e.g.. swine flu. global warming, financial crisis, and terrorism, require global risk governance. The Westphalian system, which consists of sovereign states, seemingly fails to tackle with global risks because it is based on territoriality. However, it is a state that has the resources necessary to cope with global risks in a modern era. Allocating responsibilities to each state is an effective way to manage global risks. The Westphalian system is a prima facie relevant world order against global risks. This paper extends this insight by taking into account government networks and the diversity of risks. A state itself consists of government actors, each of which connects to its foreign counterparts. The diversity of risks urges a state to disaggregate into a number of
functional branches. A just world order ageists global risks is a multi-layered government networks.
