Examine the core characteristics of global corporatism and identify the global structures which embody corporatist features.
Global corporatism refers to a system of economic and political organization in which corporations, trade associations, and other non-state actors play a significant role in the decision-making processes of global governance.

### 2. Private-Public Partnerships
Global corporatism is often marked by the increasing collaboration between the private sector and governments. These collaborations, known as public-private partnerships (PPPs), have become a standard feature in areas such as infrastructure development, environmental
