A comparative study of international organizations, this book provides a comprehensive analysis of the interactions within and among the international system. The authors explore the political motivations of these organizations and assess their value and success. The book's comparative - rather than purely historical approach - will interest both students and scholars of political science. The study begins with an overview of international organizations and then turns to a discussion of the nature, classification, and growth patterns of both intergovernmental and international nongovernmental organizations. The motivations and propensity for the formation of these organizations are examined, including groups such as The United Nations and The Organization for African Union. Institututional and bureaucratic development is explored, followed by a discussion of decision-making process. The authors address domestic politics and the pursuit of foreign policy goals and study international regimes. The work also evaluates international organizations' task performances.
