▼ How do intergovernmental organizations exercise power and how has this exercise of power changed over the last decades? This dissertation addresses these questions through a case study of the WHO's involvement in global immunization programs. It seeks to bridge the gulf between global and local examinations of IGO power by simultaneously exploring the exercise of power at both levels. This dissertation includes four main empirical studies. The first asks whether global civil society or the society of states has greater influence on the spread of global norms and practices. It employs fixed-effects models to test the influence of IGOs (society of states) and INGOs (global civil society) on immunization coverage with polio, measles, DPT and BCG vaccines for the years 1980-2001. It shows that IGOs have a positive effect on immunization coverage, suggesting that the society of states has a greater influence on the spread of public health norms than global civil society. Further, INGOs have a negative effect on immunization with controversial vaccines, especially in high-income countries. I argue that global civil society's influence on the spread of global norms is particularly strong for controversial issues with ties to transnational social movements, like women's rights and human rights. For less controversial issues strongly associated with the state, like public health, the society of states plays a more important role.The second analyzes changes in global immunization policy, tracing power dynamics in deciding on policy changes. It assesses whether states or the WHO plays a more important role in determining policy changes through an analysis of WHA debates and by tracing the source of major policy changes. It argues that WHO experts play a particularly important role in determining how immunization policy has changed since the beginning of the Expanded Programme on Immunization in 1974. It further shows how the power to influence policy has shifted dramatically since the mid-1980s with the rise of new supranational coalitions, like the Task Force for Child Survival and the GAVI Alliance. These new coalitions have come to play a particularly important role in determining major policy changes, constraining the WHO's power to act independently on health issues. However, I argue that they represent a change how the WHO exercises power rather than a diminution in its power, per se. The third study looks at the idea of "health as a human right" as it applies to childhood immunization. In it, I analyze changes in the discourse of responsibility concerning childhood immunization. I show a clear shift from a limited vision, which placed ultimate responsibility for providing immunization on the state, to a vision of shared global/local responsibility which saw immunization as a "right" that both state and global actors had a duty to ensure. Through an analysis of donations to the Voluntary Fund for Health Promotion, I show how changing visions of global responsibility for immunization helped create a new system of…

▼ In the last three decades, a growing body of research has suggested that using a mix or system of human resources management (HRM) practices can lead to superior organizational performance. These practices (such as selective recruitment and hiring procedures, performance-based compensation systems, employee participation, and training and development) have been referred to as high performance work systems (HPWS) and originated from the study of strategic human resource management (SHRM), where researchers have examined the impact of these systems on organizational performance outcomes. The relationship between HRM and organizational performance has received increasing interest from scholars and practitioners in the field of public administration. Scholars strive to identify the effects of HRM practices on organizational performance based on the notion that these practices will lead to enhanced attitudinal outcomes, such as organizational commitment, job satisfaction, and motivation, which will have positive impacts on organizational performance. This study contributes to further our understanding of the impact of management on performance in public organizations through empirical evidence drawn from theories of HRM. The growing interest among scholars in understanding the effects of management on performance presumes that the adoption of best practices will lead to improvements in organizational performance. The purpose of this mixed-methods study is to examine the effects of HPWS practices on individual worker attitudes in international governmental organizations (IGOs) by reporting the results of a staff survey and follow-up interviews conducted on a cross-section of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) employees. The UNRWA is an international relief and human development Agency with a quasi-governmental role, delivering essential public services to over five million registered Palestinian refugees. UNRWA services include education, healthcare, social services, and emergency aid. In 2006, the UNRWA began a comprehensive reform program to strengthen its management capacity. Accordingly, one of the main achievements of the reform process is the deployment of new HRM systems that included recruitment strategies, performance appraisals, training and development, and compensation and rewards systems. The underlying message of the reform process has been adopting HPWS practices, which is the object of this study. Since the 1990s, the UNRWA has become increasingly interested in policy analysis and organizational research. Especially because of recent changes in the Agency’s management style, the UNRWA has become more focused on integrating knowledge and management research into its work. Therefore, when the researcher sought permission to examine the effects of the newly adopted HPWS practices on employee attitudes, the staff and upper management were very collaborative and co-operative. Surveys and interviews were conducted with program administrators, operations…

Докторска дисертација под насловом Међународноправни субјективитет Европске уније има за предмет да испита и анализира међународноправни субјективитет Европске уније и да идентификује конкретан институционални и нормативни оквир за његово остваривање, као и поједина права која Европска унија поседује у међународном јавном праву захваљујући свом субјективитету. У том смислу, овај рад тежи да размотри практичне и теоретске аспекте остваривања субјективитета Европске уније у међународном јавном праву, базирајући се на општим сазнањима о међународноправном субјективитету међународних организација, као и посебним сазнањима у вези са Европском унијом. Да би се одговорило овом циљу, овај рад посебну пажњу посвећује феномену регионалне интеграције као форми међународног организовања држава чланица укључених у процес европских интеграција. Овај приступ је значајан јер је Европска унија регионална међународна организација sui generis која је у значајном делу својих овлашћења наднационалног (супранационалног) карактера и која има развијен институционални и политички систем те посебан правни систем и шири скуп правних и политичких тековина – acquis Уније и значајне надлежности за деловање на међународноправном нивоу. С обзиром на њену улогу у међународним односима, међународном праву и на конституисање посебног правног система ове организације, научно испитивање и практично сагледавање њеног међународноправног субјективитета има сразмеран значај у правној науци. Стога, као предмет који захтева систематску научну обраду и истраживање, одредили смо анализу инструмената, процедура и услова у којима се остварује међународноправни субјективитет Европске уније у контексту постојећих правила међународног јавног права и важећих конститутивних уговора ове организације, а у вези са остваривањем вредности и циљева на којима почива целокупан процес европске изградње и надлежности додељених Унији.

Политичке науке - Међународно-правна област / Political Sciences - International-legal field

Интелектуални капитал и управљање интелектуалним капиталом на значају добијају након електронске револуције, када претежан део новостворене вредности бива створен знањем. Иако се концепт интелектуалног капитала и управљања интелектуалним капиталом развијао у другој трећини XX века, прва озбиљнија зачећа припадају првој трећини XX века. Знатно више вредности је створено интелектуалним капиталом у XXI веку него материјалним ресурсима и радом у непосредној производњи, што представља главни разлог додељивања нове димензије интелектуалном капиталу како у привреди, тако и у науци. У тзв. „старој економији“, улагања у материјална средства су чинила најзначајнији део активе у компанијама и организацијама, а стицање истих био је њихов примарни циљ, док је економија знања донела нове промене у концепту економије. Изучавању интелектуалног капитала у организационим структурама се почело посвећивати више пажње како на микро, тако и на макро нивоу. Анализа интелектуалног капитала и утврђивање интерактивних односа са економским развојем међународних организација кроз организационе системе, рутине, процедуре, те организациону „учећу“ културу основни је предмет овог рада. Компоненте које се посматрају тим путем су образовање, вештине, способности, технологијa, интерни и екстерни односи међународних организација, те правно регулисање управљачке структуре. У раду се разматрају оквири за креирање развојног програма менаџмента знања у међународним организацијама на узорку међународних монетарних и финансијских владиних организација. Заокруживање теоријске основе кроз главну проблематику докторске дисертације односи се на преглед и анализу различитих теоријских приступа у дефинисању основних фактора који утичу на развој међународних организација, а кроз менаџмент знања тј. економске елементе као што су организациона култура, менаџмент људских ресурса и информациони системи. На основу наведеног изводе се закључци о самом значају управљања интелектуалним капиталом у међународним организацијама...

▼ Why do some international organizations work closely with private sector actors, while others collaborate with nongovernmental organizations and other civil society organizations? What leads international organizations to choose to work with one type of actor while screening others out? I argue international organizations primarily collaborate with nonstate actors in order to access two key benefits: information and political support. Who gets in, and conversely who gets left out, is a function of which nonstate actors’ skills the international organization and its member states will most benefit from. Organizations that spend their time coordinating and regulating international behavior will rely heavily on the assistance of private sector actors, while organizations that spend their time implementing projects and working on the ground in member states will collaborate primarily with civil society actors.I test this theory of differential nonstate actor access at international organizations using an original dataset which details the access that 72 international organizations provide to private sector actors and civil society actors. I show that international organizations with a broader policy scope offer more access to nonstate actors generally, and that the type of work the organization is engaged in can be used to predict with whom they choose to work.I further support these empirical findings using two case studies which examine in more detail the access that international organizations in the tails of the distribution provide to nonstate actors. First, I look at the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, which coordinates member states’ defense capabilities and collaborates extensively with private sector actors, and second, I look at the Council of Europe, which works to improve human rights conditions on the ground and allows access exclusively to international nongovernmental organizations.This dissertation speaks to important questions of whose voice is heard at the international policymaking table, the balance of perspectives policymakers receive, and the power of nonstate actors in our political system.

▼ This dissertation develops the concept of an International Security Cooperation Market. The currency of this market is the side-deal. These deals, also known as issue-linkages or side-payments, are systematically negotiated between Lead Nations - nations for which the execution of a particular security cooperation effort is a top foreign policy priority - and Laggards, which do not assign a similar level of importance to the same endeavor. I argue that institutional connectedness between leaders and laggards affects the likelihood of a laggard being successfully recruited by the leader. I demonstrate that institutional connectedness allows leaders to minimize information asymmetries and to maximize payment flexibility thus increasing the likelihood of concluding a successful bargain. I propose that this market mechanism exists parallel to traditional collective action efforts: if too few "like-minded" security cooperation partners are available, the market can fill the void. I test this argument in two ways. First, I undertake a quantitative analysis of all security operations (i.e., multilateral military deployments) conducted since the end of the Cold War. I present an original dataset to investigate whether there exists a statistical association between institutional connectedness and troop deployments. In addition, I examine six specific instances of force generation negotiations to understand the precise causal processes at work. These case studies draw on extensive field research over two years in Nigeria, France, Ireland, Austria, Australia, Washington D.C., New York and Brussels. They rely on over 100 interviews with high-ranking government officials, including former prime ministers, foreign ministers, Joint Chiefs of Staff and UN ambassadors. I find that there is a strong statistical relationship between institutional connectedness and security operation participation, which holds across twelve different statistical models. In addition, the case studies illustrate that the hypothesized causal mechanisms of the market model function as expected, although some are more common than others. These findings have implications for both academic theory and political practice in the fields of international cooperation, international institutions and bargaining.

▼ Why do some states have a seemingly easy path to joining international organizations while other states find the process nearly impossible? What implications do the variation in accession paths have for the domestic politics of the acceding state? Increasingly, scholars recognize that the process of accession to international organizations is critical to understanding how international organizations influence states, including whether or not membership has an influence on domestic or international politics. This project contributes to these discussions by focusing on the yet unanswered question of why there exists such extreme variation in the accession process from state to state and how that variation impacts domestic politics. I argue that variation in the terms of accession is explained by factors at both the domestic level of the acceding state and the level of the international organization. The quality of the domestic bureaucracy and the level of public support for accession are the factors that matter most from the applicant state. From the level of the international organization, the factor that matters most is whether there is an objecting state, a challenger, blocking the membership of the acceding state. I test these arguments using quantitative and case-study analysis using original data on accession to the World Trade Organization from 1950-2008 and on accession to the European Union from 1973-2004. My findings confirm that states with a highly professional bureaucracy and strong public support move more easily through the accession process, unless that state faces a challenger in the accession negotiations. My findings also confirm that states will make more meaningful domestic political changes when they face a challenger during accession negotiations. More broadly, my dissertation demonstrates a unique way that international organizations have leverage over states by forcing changes to the domestic political structure of a state. In this way, my research answers the question of whether international organizations “matter” by offering a perspective previously unexplored in academic research. My dissertation also shows how states can use the cover of accession to international organizations as a way to bring about and secure domestic political and economic reforms. Thus, policy-makers may wish to consider pursuing accession to international organizations as a means to bring about reforms that would otherwise be impossible to do given bureaucratic limitations or domestic opposition.

▼ In the contemporary international system, non-state actors pose an acute threat to the interests of states. Transnational terrorism is a particularly notable example of the security threats that non-state actors pose. While the literature on international agreements has focused on state-level compliance, much of international law concerns the behavior of non-state entities such as terrorist groups, transnational crime organizations, corporations, and individuals. This study considers whether the international counter-terrorism regime developed over the past five decades has been effective at reducing transnational terrorism and consider the implications for the study of other instruments of international law which regard non-state actor behavior. Because these agreements establish clear benchmarks, they provide observable outcomes for donors that may want to give foreign aid, but are uncertain about whether aid recipients will use aid for its intended purpose. Agreements allow donors to condition aid allocation on benchmarks set by treaties, rather than observed levels of non-state behavior alone, increasing donor-recipient trust and capacity building aid flows. I find that countries ratifying counter-terrorism agreements see a significant increase in foreign aid receipts. I then assess the effectiveness of eight UN counter-terrorism conventions individually, using terrorism data germane to the type of terrorist activity the specific agreement attempts to curtail. I find support for the hypothesis that counter-terrorism agreements reduce transnational terrorism for five of the agreements in issue areas of terrorist bombing, kidnapping, hostage-taking, and financing. I conclude by discussing how the variation in effectiveness of counter-terrorism agreements found may help shed light on the design of effective international agreements when the locus of compliance is non-state actors and treaty design more generally.

▼ Since the end of World War II, states have constructed international institutions at a breakneck pace. As a result, dense clusters of institutions now compete for authority in many issue areas. This dissertation examines the causes and consequences of institutional proliferation. It argues that states create and leverage networks of institutions to advance political goals. In doing so, they confront a tension between increasing control over global governance and reducing the effectiveness of cooperation. The dissertation contains three articles. In ``Angling for Influence: Institutional Proliferation in Development Banking,'' I argue that concerns about bargaining power lead states to build overlapping institutions. I test this argument by analyzing how the distribution of vote shares in the World Bank drives the creation of new development banks. Drawing on archival research into the Bank's historical allocation of votes, I leverage a natural experiment stemming from an early change in the vote share formula. The results reveal that power misalignment has a strong causal effect on institutional proliferation. The second article, ``Deference and Hierarchy in International Regime Complexes,'' demonstrates how international organizations (IOs) coordinate to reduce conflict and divide labor. I describe patterns of institutional deference – defined as the acceptance of another IO's exercise of authority – in the counterterrorism, intellectual property, and election-monitoring regime complexes. I find that IOs that defer to each subsequently divide labor by focusing their efforts on separate subissues. I also show that deference is a strategic act that is shaped both by efficiency concerns and power politics. The final article, ``Race to the Bottom? Vertically Differentiated Institutions and Regime Complexity,'' analyzes how overlapping IOs affect international cooperation. I argue that they have contrasting effects depending on the level of differentiation among institutions. When states view institutions as substitutes, the ability to forum shop will reduce the total policy adjustment achieved in the regime. However, when institutions are vertically differentiated – i.e., the depth of an institution's rules affect the benefits of compliance – a regime complex can increase policy adjustment. I demonstrate these dynamics formally and provide empirical evidence in analyses of the development finance and election-monitoring regime complexes.

Esta tese pretende analisar a emergência da União Europeia (UE) como ator político relevante das relações internacionais. Para isso, avaliou-se a influência do Tratado de Lisboa na supranacionalidade da Política Externa e de Segurança Comum (PESC) da UE. No trabalho, procurou-se apresentar as teorias das relações internacionais, concentrando-se na perspectiva institucionalista para a análise da PESC. A partir daí, discute-se o conceito de supranacionalidade, para então identificar seus elementos característicos nas organizações internacionais, como a composição dos órgãos, o processo decisório, o ordenamento jurídico e a personalidade. Estudou-se também a evolução da Europa como entidade influente na política mundial, desde o Concerto Europeu, passando pela Comunidade Europeia (CE) e Cooperação Política Europeia (CPE) até as discussões que levaram à criação da UE e da PESC pelo Tratado de Maastricht, para depois examinar suas características e evoluções nos Tratados de Amsterdã e Nice. Por fim, o Tratado de Lisboa é analisado, verificando-se a hipótese do aumento no grau de supranacionalidade que ele trouxe à PESC. Assim, o trabalho relaciona os avanços do Tratado de Lisboa com as previsões feitas pelos teóricos institucionalistas, avaliando a validade de seus argumentos e tecendo cenários futuros com o auxílio da teoria, especialmente em relação à coesão da política externa européia.

This thesis aims to analyze the emergence of the European Union (EU) as a relevant political actor in international relations. For this, we evaluated the influence of the Lisbon Treaty in the supranationality of Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP). At this paper, we tried to present the theories of international relations, focusing on the institutionalist perspective to analyze the CFSP. Thereafter, we discuss the concept of supranationalism, and then identify its characteristic features in international organizations such as the composition of the bodies, decision-making, juridical order and the legal personality. It was also studied the evolution of Europe as an influential entity in world politics since the European Concert, passing by the European Community (EC) and the European Political Cooperation (EPC) to the discussions that led to the creation of the EU and the CFSP in the Maastricht Treaty, and then examined their characteristics and developments in the Treaties of Amsterdam and Nice. Finally, the Lisbon Treaty is analyzed, verifying the hypothesis of an increased degree of supranationalism that it brought to the CFSP. Thus, the research relates the progress of the Lisbon Treaty with the theoretical predictions made by institutionalists, assessing the validity of their arguments and weaving future scenarios with the aid of the theory, especially in relation to the cohesion of European foreign policy.

▼ This dissertation draws interdisciplinary insights from philosophical discourse on collective entities in order to advance a refined conception of international organizations in public international law. It suggests that current efforts to theorize international organizations face severe limitations in formulating a convincing legal theory of these institutions and their legal personality. As a result, ambiguity lingers on a number of important legal issues, such as the extent to which international organizations are bound by the same rules of customary international law as states, and their capacity to contribute directly to custom’s formation. After exposing the limits of current scholarship, this dissertation moves on to explore its core philosophical assumptions. It suggests that the prevailing approach operates on the basis of troublesome assumptions which substantially curtail scholars’ ability to fully conceptualize the nature of international organizations. These assumptions pertain to the legal personality of the state itself—the entity that is supposed to form the building block of international organizations. Despite the emergence of newer theoretical approaches over the years, scholars continue to operate on a rough premise of state anthropomorphism. According to this popular, though dated notion, the state can be analogized to the individual human being. Modelling the state as a soulful or organic entity distorts the theorizing effort regarding international organizations. Anthropomorphic interpretations of the state’s legal personality suggest that international organizations are either artificial, and thus somehow less real entities than states, or that they too should be theorized as soulful or organic entities on par with states. Trapped between the opposite ends of this crude binary, the discipline is left with unappealing, and ultimately problematic, avenues for theorizing international organizations. This dissertation delves into the philosophical debates surrounding the notion of collective entities in order to overcome this binary. On this basis, it proposes a more nuanced conceptualization of international organizations. Rather than trying to compare and contrast states and international organizations for all intents and purposes, scholars should instead think of both entities as manifestations of public authority. This revised theoretical framework can then lay the groundwork for addressing key analytical problems in public international law regarding these institutions.

▼ This dissertation examines the role of practitioners in the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) in driving regional cooperation in West Africa. ECOWAS practitioners, called “Ecocrats” help change and define the scope of regional governance practices in West Africa. This research identifies the mechanisms that drive regional convergence—the process in which regional political practices become more constant, as illustrated in areas of peace and security, finance, and public health. Using process tracing and interview data from ECOWAS practitioners and West African-based Civil Society organizations, this project examines how Ecocrats network West Africa through its engagement with non-state regional stakeholders. In understanding the role of Ecocrats, this work emphasizes the governance practices of ECOWAS, its various institutional forms, and cooperation between and among states and non-state actors in West Africa beyond solely legalistic frameworks of integration. This dissertation argues that regional convergence is strongest where ECOWAS engages in deep forms of institutionalization, defined through the process by which modes of behavior and practices become more dependable and durable. ☐ This work contributes to existing scholarship on regional organizations in three significant ways. First, by using a networked approach, this dissertation makes an empirical contribution to the role and utility of intergroup and organizational behavior in regional organizations and identifies the institutional drivers of governance convergence. Second, this dissertation tackles issues of conceptualization and causality by providing knowledge as to how regional governance practices emerge outside the decision-making realm of West African Heads of State and Foreign Ministers; and third, this dissertation contributes to the theorization of Africa in the study of comparative regionalism by examining bottom-up approaches to the politics of regional institutional change and the conditions in which social practices shape regional institutional formation.

▼ Democratic systems are under attack around the world. Democracy’s contemporary adversaries have devised highly legalistic tactics to consolidate power, dismantle checks and balances, and infringe upon hard-won civil rights. I contend that regional intergovernmental organizations (RIOs) are uniquely positioned to defend democratic values and governance in their member states. RIOs can deter democratic decay by designing and employing their individual democracy enforcement toolkit. This dissertation asks two related questions about the design and development of these toolkits. First, why do democracy enforcement toolkits vary across time and place? I argue collective experiences with democratic transitions and stability in a region shape treaty designers’ preferences and outcomes at specific points in time. When collective formidable experiences in a region include democratic erosion and instability, the designers will be more inclined to delegate democracy enforcement capabilities to the RIO. Alternatively, when the collective experiences in the region suggest unilateral transitions and democratic stability, fewer mechanisms are designed in the interest of sovereignty. Taking an historical institutionalist approach based on archival research in Europe and Washington, DC, I find evidence supporting this collective democratic experience hypothesis in comparative case studies of the Organization of American States and the European Union. Second, which toolkits are effective deterrents of democratic decay? I conjure five versions of the toolkit design hypothesis, which explore whether individual toolkits, individual mechanisms, or the compound effects of RIO toolkits in the democracy enforcement regime complex are better deterrents. These hypotheses are tested on the original Democracy Enforcement Toolkit Dataset, which traces the development of democracy enforcement mechanisms in twelve RIOs from 1948 to 2017. Through statistical analyses, I surmise incorporation of mediation, monitoring, and regional courts renders RIOs more effective as deterrents of democratic erosion. Given these findings, RIO and state leaders should incorporate these enforcement methods into their available regional toolkits before the liberal world order is vanquished.
