This document discusses international organizations and their role in globalization. It describes two main types of international organizations - governmental and non-governmental. Governmental organizations are established through international agreements between states and have states as members, while non-governmental organizations have natural or legal persons as members. The United Nations is provided as a key example of a global governmental organization, established in 1945 with goals of maintaining peace and security between nations. It discusses the UN's main bodies of the General Assembly and Security Council. The document also notes the increasing role of international organizations in managing challenges of globalization and ongoing discussions around reforming organizations like the UN to adapt to the current globalized world.
This document provides an abstract for a study on developing a theory of public diplomacy. It aims to test different explanations for why states practice public diplomacy, including rational, idealistic, and social trend motivations, using a novel quantitative method and statistical analysis. The study finds that rational explanations related to factors like wealth and prestige best explain public diplomacy activities. However, it also finds evidence that a social trend or norm is emerging as more states participate in public diplomacy beyond rational calculations. Idealistic motivations are found to have limited explanatory power despite concepts of "credible diplomacy." The document outlines the theoretical background and emergence of public diplomacy as a field of study.
This document discusses cultural diplomacy and nation branding. It defines cultural diplomacy as the exchange of culture between nations to foster mutual understanding. The document outlines the evolution of cultural diplomacy and discusses concepts like soft power and nation brands. It also examines instruments of cultural diplomacy such as cultural missions, education, and sports; and how events like the Olympics can influence a nation's brand image.
Fascism is a political movement characterized by extreme loyalty to the state and obedience to a single leader who has total control over the government. Fascist systems are totalitarian, have no elections, censor information, and use propaganda and threats of violence to maintain the leader's power and ensure the people remain loyal to the nationalist cause. Wealthy individuals who want to protect their influence often make up fascist political parties.

Liberalism is a political and social philosophy that advocates individual freedom and government protections of civil liberties. It first emerged during the Enlightenment and gave people hope for more freedom. Liberal ideas spread during revolutions in America and France and the establishment of liberal democracies in Europe, Latin America, and North America in the 19th century. Major liberal thinkers discussed in the document include John Locke, who advocated for life, liberty, and property rights; Mary Wollstonecraft, who fought for greater women's freedom; and Voltaire, who believed in freedom of expression. However, not all thinkers supported liberalism, such as Thomas Hobbes, who believed people were inherently evil.

The document provides an introduction to the United Nations system, describing its history and purposes. It explains that the UN was founded in 1945 to promote international cooperation and security between nations. It outlines the UN's main organs including the General Assembly, Security Council, Economic and Social Council, and others. The UN works on peace and security, human rights, rule of law, and development through its 193 member states and offices around the world.
The document discusses the tension between state sovereignty and international governance in matters of international security. It provides an overview of different approaches to humanitarian intervention, democracy and good governance promotion, and international criminal tribunals that have challenged the traditional concept of absolute state sovereignty. While globalization has increased calls for intervention, implementation remains inconsistent and challenges include lack of political will, selective application depending on strategic interests, and tension between universal values and local contexts.
The United Nations (UN) was founded in 1945 to replace the League of Nations and aims to facilitate international cooperation, security, development, and peace. It contains 193 member states and six principal organs, including the General Assembly and Security Council. Other prominent UN organizations are the World Health Organization, World Food Programme, and UNICEF. The UN Economic and Social Council is responsible for global economic and social affairs, and the International Court of Justice decides disputes between states.

The document provides information about the formation and objectives of the League of Nations, as well as its structure, membership, powers, and successes and failures. The League of Nations was formed after World War 1 to promote international cooperation and prevent future wars. However, it struggled to achieve its goals due to weaknesses like its lack of an army to enforce its decisions, an changing membership as countries left, and its inability to stop aggression by Japan and Italy in the early 1930s. This signaled that the League was ineffective at fulfilling its most important purpose of maintaining international peace.

Global governance involves the management of global political and economic issues in the absence of a world government. It expresses power over life in three ways - through material forms like economic and military power; by promoting masculine and patriarchal values; and by projecting liberal ideologies as neutral truths. Critics argue that global governance uses governmentality to exert power over planetary life through institutions and networks that disseminate liberal norms in order to manage and discipline global populations. Understanding global governance as technical, material and ideological reveals the structures and rationalities of power behind international phenomena.

International Politics - International Relations - Chapter 1kkrassan
油
This document introduces some of the key concepts in world politics, including the complex and interconnected nature of the global system, the challenges of seeking security in an anarchic world, and the difficulties of cooperation between self-interested states. It discusses levels of analysis, theoretical paradigms for understanding international relations, and dilemmas like the Prisoner's Dilemma that illustrate obstacles to cooperation. The overall goal is to set the stage for examining patterns in world politics and issues around achieving security in a complicated global environment.
The document defines nationalism, fascism, and Nazism. It discusses the rise of extreme nationalism in Europe prior to World War 1, specifically focusing on the rise of the Nazi party in Germany and the fascist party in Italy led by Mussolini. It explains how Hitler and Mussolini rose to power in their countries in part by appealing to nationalist sentiments and establishing totalitarian regimes based on extreme nationalism, cultural superiority, and opposition to communism.
Liberalism emphasizes the multiplicity of international actors like states, international organizations, and transnational groups. Liberals see states as important actors but not the only ones, and prefer the term "world politics" over "international relations". They view states as battlegrounds for domestic and transnational interests rather than unitary, rational actors. Global civil society refers to voluntary organizations, women's groups, human rights organizations, environmental activists, and chambers of commerce. Liberals believe international cooperation is possible between states and other actors through decisive actions by both state and nonstate groups.

Il Censimento delle Istituzioni non profit, condotto dallIstat nel 2011, ha riempito un vuoto informativo esistente in Italia sul settore, fornendone una rappresentazione statistica aggiornata e una serie di approfondimenti che hanno permesso di delinearne le caratteristiche principali, le peculiarit e il ruolo del volontariato organizzato nel quadro economico e sociale del Paese. Grazie alla disponibilit dei dati censuari 竪 stato possibile realizzare analisi ad un elevato dettaglio territoriale, restituendo larticolazione della diffusione del volontariato organizzato nei territori lombardi. Partendo dallanalisi di alcuni indicatori di diffusione delle istituzioni non profit con volontari nei sistemi locali (Sl), quali il peso delle unit locali e dei volontari rispetto alla popolazione residente e la superficie territoriale, si 竪 proceduto ad analizzare la presenza del volontariato organizzato negli sl lombardi in termini di specializzazione delle attivit svolte dalle istituzioni presenti sul territorio. Emerge cos狸 un quadro dettagliato dello sviluppo e dellarticolazione del volontariato attivo nel settore non profit lombardo, una mappa del volontariato lombardo che permette di cogliere le peculiarit e le componenti principali che caratterizzano il terzo settore in questo territorio del Nord Italia.
