    A HISTORY OF GLOBAL POLITICS:


    CREATING AN INTERNATIONAL ORDER
    Presented by: John Adnhel E. Cañete
    The world is composed of many countries or states, all of
    them having different forms of governments. As the world
    moves on with the tick of time, interactions and diplomacy all
    around the world is expected to persist in order to build an
    international system. Scholars study and explore the
    deepening relations between states, this is called
    internationalization.

    INTRODUCTION
    THE FOUR KEY ATTRIBUTES OF
    TODAY'S POLITICS The
    ✓ - Independent and self-governing
    countries or states. Attributes of
    ✓ -These countries interact with each
    Today's
    ✓
    other through diplomacy.

    - Presence of international organizations


    such as United Nations (UN).
    Global
    ✓ - International organizations also take
    lives of their own.
    System
    HISTORY/ORIGIN OF TODAY'S GLOBAL SYSTEM
    A good start to trace back the origin of today's global system is by
    defining the two non-interchangeable terms, nation-state.

    In layman's terms, state refers to a country and its government, i.e.,


    the government of the Philippines.

    A state has four attributes:


    -It exercises authority over a specific population, called its citizens.
    -It governs a specific territory.
    -It has a structure of government that crafts various rules that people
    follow.
    -It has sovereignty over its territory.
    On the other hand, the nation, according to Benedict Anderson, is an "imagined
    community." It is limited because it does not go beyond a given "official boundary,"
    and because rights and responsibilities are mainly the privilege and concern of the
    citizens of the nation.
    .

    Nation-builders can only feel a sense of fulfilment when their national ideal assumes
    an organizational form whose authority and power are recognized and accepted by
    "the people". In pursuit of this, diplomacy and interactions between countries/states
    have found its way to build today's global system.

    So to speak, sovereignty is, thus, one of the fundamental principles of modern state
    politics.
    THE INTERSTATE SYSTEM
    IMPORTANT EVENTS
    The Westphalian system provided stability for the nations of Europe, until it
    faced is first major challenge by Napoleon Bonaparte who believed in spreading
    the principles of the French Revolution-liberty, equality, and fraternity.

    Anglo and Prussian armies defeated Napoleon in the Battle of Waterloo in 1813
    that completely stopped the spread of Napoleonic code.

    The Concert of Europe was formed with the alliance of United Kingdom,
    Austria, Russia, and Prussia, also known as "great powers," that sought to
    restore the world monarchical, hereditary, and religious privileges of the
    time before the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars. The Concert
    of Europe collapsed at the dawn of World War 1, 1914, but it still holds
    significant influence over the world politics.

    Others imagine a system of heightened interaction between various


    sovereign states, particularly the desire for greater cooperation and unity
    among states and people. This desire came inbeknown as
    internationalism
    IMPORTANT EVENTS
    - The League of Nations that Woodrow Wilson pushed came into being in 1919, and upon
    its failure, gave birth to international organizations that are still around until today, the
    most popular of which are the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International
    Labour Organization (ILO).

    - After Marx died in 1883, his followers established The Socialist International (SI) was a
    union of European socialist. SI's achievements included the declaration of May I as Labor
    Day and the creation of an International Women's Day.

    - The SI collapsed during World War I and more radical version emerged: The Communist
    International (Comintern)established by Vladimir Lenin, the leader of Bolshevik Party. The
    Comintern served as central body for directing Communist party all over the world.
    IMPORTANT EVENTS

    - Lenin's successor, Joseph Stalin, dissolved the Comintern in 1943 and


    later on, re- established it as the Communist Information Bureau
    (Cominform). The Cominform, like the Comintern before, it helped direct
    the various communist parties that had taken power in Eastern Europe.

    - For the postwar period, liberal internationalism would once again be


    ascendant. And United Nations rose as the center of global governance.
    INTERNATIONAL LAW
    - Is central to promoting economic and
    social development, as well as to advancing international peace
    and security.
    -consists of rules and principles governing the relations and
    dealings of nations with each other.

    STATUTE
    NAPOLEONIC CODE
    -It was drafted by a commission of four eminent jurists and
    entered into force on 21 March 1804.
    -implemented by French that forbade birth privileges,

    CREATED encouraged freedom or religion and promoted Meritocracy


    ingovernment services.

    COMMUNIST INTERNATIONAL
    -served as the central body for directing Communist parties all
    over the world.
    -known also as the Third International (1919-1943), was an
    international organization that advocated world communism.
    -It helps set the international agenda, mediating
    political bargaining, providing a place for political
    initiatives.
    IMPORTANCE/

    - It acts as catalysts for coalition-formation. SIGNIFICANCE


    Cooperation and coordination among member
    nations will be facilitated.
    OF CREATING
    - It works to shape the international settlement in
    more structured, collaborative and rule-bound ways.
    INTERNATIONAL
    -It enables collective problem-solving and it also
    avert protectionist impulses and stabilize world ORDER
    economy.
    CONCLUSION
    In tracing these roots, a short history of internationalism was
    provided. Moreover, internationalism is but one window into the
    broader phenomenon of globalization. This increased
    interdependence manifests itself not just through state-to-state
    relations. Increasingly, international relations are also facilitated by
    international organizations that promote global norms and policies.
    The most prominent example of this organization, of course, is the
    United Nations.
