Résumé :

An international organization is an organisation that is supposed to promote cooperation and policy coordination. The term is usually reserved for intergovernmental organizations such as the United Nations, the European Union, the World Bank, or the World Trade Organization, with sovereign states as members. They seek to solve problems not limited to national boundaries such as the search for justice, the promotion economic welfare and social progress, or the management of global resources, in the public interest. international organizations have been viewed, at one extreme, as the vanguard of an emerging world government, and at the other, as an exercise of ineffectiveness in promoting cooperation between sovereign states. The term "bureaucrats" refer to the officials of high administrations. The term "bargaining" can be defined as every interaction, any negotiation. states are the principal actors in the international relations. They are usually expected to behave egoistically and rationally. Thus, nowadays, we tend to think that international rules are effectively not respected and that states think that the institutions which could enforce it are not efficient and threatening enough. And if according to some international lawyers, "international bureaucrats, unelected and without coercive power can really influence the decision of powerful nation-states" (Moravscik, 1999), we can doubt about general claims about the influence of international organizations.
