This document provides an agenda and materials for a lesson on international organizations and foreign policy. It includes announcements about tutoring sessions and senior finals. The lesson objective is for students to analyze country case studies and evaluate what actions international organizations could take to aid these countries. The document defines different types of international organizations and provides examples like the UN, NATO, World Bank, and Red Cross. It includes a guided practice on coding a country case study and suggesting how organizations could help. It assigns a classwork and homework for students to complete.
- The document outlines the history and roles of several international organizations established between the 1940s-1990s such as the UN, WHO, IMF, WTO, SAARC, ASEAN.
- It notes the year of establishment, founding member countries, and key objectives of promoting cooperation in areas like health, trade, development, and regional stability.
- Examples include the UN establishing several specialized agencies after WWII to address issues like health (WHO), refugees (UNHCR), and children's rights (UNICEF). The IMF and World Bank were also formed in 1944-1947 to manage global finance and development.
This document provides an overview of key concepts from a political science lecture on international relations theory, including rational choice theory, realism, liberalism, and the role of state and non-state actors. It discusses how international relations theory aims to understand and prevent conflict through power management. Realism is examined in particular, noting it views states as primarily concerned with self-interest and survival in an anarchic system.

The document discusses the idea of establishing a one world government through strengthening the United Nations. It provides perspectives from Walter Cronkite who stated that a world government with a legislature, executive, and judiciary is needed to avoid catastrophic world conflict and enforce international laws. Cronkite argues that democracy and civilization are at stake, and that Americans will need courage and faith to yield some national sovereignty to a new, democratic U.N. federated system. The document asks what rights a sovereign nation would retain and give up in such a system and suggests areas like national trade policies, internal security, and taxes could be retained, while security, military, compliance with laws, and agreements may be given to the new world body.
The United Nations (UN) is an international organization founded in 1945 with a membership of nation states. Its purposes are to provide a structure for states to peacefully settle disputes and maintain international security. The UN has several organs that carry out its functions, including the General Assembly, Security Council, Secretariat, and various economic and social bodies. While the UN has had some successes in peacekeeping and humanitarian aid, it also faces criticisms over failures to prevent conflicts and reforms to its operations.

The Concert of Europe was an informal arrangement between European powers in the 19th century to consult with one another during times of crisis. It originated from the alliance against Napoleon and helped prevent conflict in Europe for over 100 years until breaking down in 1914. While it had no formal organs, the Quadruple Alliance of Austria, Britain, Prussia, and Russia agreed to meet if Europe's territorial settlement was threatened. The International Committee of the Red Cross was founded in 1863 and promoted the creation of national Red Cross societies. It drafted the 1949 Geneva Conventions covering treatment of wounded, prisoners of war, and civilians. The Hague Conferences of 1899 and 1907 were the most highly attended and established the Permanent Court of Arbit
The document summarizes key international organizations including the United Nations, European Union, and some of their main components. The UN was created in 1945 and has 193 member states. It aims to promote peace, cooperation, and human rights. The EU started as the EEC and evolved into a political and economic union. It currently has 28 member states and institutions like the European Commission, Parliament, and Council that govern the bloc. Both organizations have had positive impacts but also face ongoing challenges.
Basic Principles and Organizations of the United NationsAnıl Sural
The United Nations Charter outlines the UN's organizational structure and principles. As a weak confederation, the UN relies on cooperation between its members to implement its functions. The Charter's principles have at times enabled or hindered UN action, depending on members' political will. The UN's main goals are maintaining peace and security, promoting economic and social cooperation, and protecting human rights. The Charter establishes six principal organs: the General Assembly, Security Council, Economic and Social Council, Trusteeship Council, Secretariat, and International Court of Justice. Their roles are to consider issues, make recommendations, coordinate programs, and support the UN's objectives.
Polsc26 1 rise of international organizationsYvan Gumbao
The document discusses the rise of international organizations and identifies three essential conditions for their existence: independent political communities, agreed upon rules among those communities, and a formal structure to implement and enforce those rules. It then outlines the development of international organizations in the 19th century due to factors like the industrial revolution and European imperialism. European imperialism contributed to the emergence of a global economic network and the need for agreed regulations, standards, and dispute resolution, which led to the proliferation of international governmental organizations in that period.
The document discusses the roles and objectives of several major international organizations that work on development issues such as the UNDP, WFP, UN Women, UNAIDS, WHO, IFAD, UNESCO, ILO, FAO, and UNIDO. These organizations focus on areas like poverty reduction, food security, gender equality, public health, education, employment rights, agriculture, and increasing prosperity in developing nations. They provide services like funding, technical assistance, advocacy, monitoring, and setting global standards to promote development and human welfare around the world.
Political Science 7 – International Relations - Power Point #6John Paul Tabakian
This document provides an overview of lecture material from Dr. Tabakian's Political Science 7 course on modern world governments. It covers several topics within international relations theories, including:
- Liberal institutionalism and international regimes, which focus on cooperation through international organizations.
- Collective security, which calls for states to jointly oppose aggression through alliances. However, collective security faces challenges in getting states to commit to defending each other.
- Theories of democratic peace, which argue that democracies are inherently more peaceful than authoritarian states and rarely fight each other. However, critics argue external threats may better explain the peace between democracies.
- Gender theories and feminism within international relations,
