Description

Examines the historical development of international organisation in international relations. Focuses on formal institutions (for example, the UN, IMF, NATO, WHO, GATT/WTO) as well as modes of organisation, that is, on both the formal legal/institutional aspects of international organisations as well as the process whereby states and other actors attempt to adapt the rules, procedures and frameworks of co-operation to the conditions of an interdependent global economy in the context of an inter-state system.
