This article explores the co-shaping of global challenges and governance of science and technology through time. It aims to address the issue of governance of science and technology as governing through local (regional, national) and international negotiations and institutions.

We argue that the transnational perspective allows scholars to connect the local and global scales, and conclude with a reflection on how historical perspectives on the governance of science and technology in periods of social and economic crisis can provide valuable insights to policymakers.Stathis Arapostathis is assistant professor of history of science and technology in the Department of History and Philosophy of Science at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. He has written on the law, science, and technology relations, the history of intellectual property in science and technology, the history of engineering expertise in governing sociotechnical change, the history of environment and technology, the transnational history of technological systems, as well as the role of history in policymaking and sociotechnical transitions.

“…48 Others have explored how states created the first international organization, the International Telegraph Union, to solve the problems of coordinating the transmission of telegrams across borders. 49 Innovation in telegraphy has been a much disputed field. On the one hand, Bernhard Finn argued that from its beginning, telegraphy was a stagnant technology and that the economic monopoly of a handful of telegraph companies hindered innovation from 'independent' inventors.…”
