GLOBDEV Entry # 4

We now move on to institutions. Yes, these institutions exist in our world today and they seem to be a part or at least have an influence in global affairs. Yes, institutions like the United Nations, ASEAN, NATO, European Union,  OECD, GCC and so on are institutions that go beyond a single country or territory and are a part of something greater.

The opinion of the general populace regarding these supra-national and international organizations and institutions remains varied. There are those who like them as they see that it leads to more international cooperation and mutual understanding while there are those who are against them stating that these organizations and institutions often supersede or go beyond constitutional boundaries and territorial jurisdictions.

Well personally, I'm cool with them being here so I say, I'm really fine with what they do. I believe that they are doing something and that the aim of these organizations and institutions is for the greater good. I personally see no harm in them. Still, if people see otherwise, then that's fine by me. As for me though, I am welcome to whatever actions and initiatives that they are doing or wish to do..........all for the sake of the greater good (and seriously, who doesn't want such, right?)
