· -What role do humanitarian organizations play in crises such as those in Ukraine and the Middle East? · - How does policing work at an international level? · - Why has the US only ratified three of the seven major human rights treaties? · -Who guides the international response to climate change, and is it working? This new textbook introduces readers to the nature, structure and purpose of international organizations (IOs). Taking a broad, issues-based approach, the book goes beyond a conventional focus on topics like security and finance to cover global health, migration, food security, and technology. In addition to providing cases of the best-known intergovernmental organizations such as the UN and the World Trade Organization, this text gives space to a wide variety of other bodies, including international non-governmental organizations, non-state actors and multinational enterprises. It looks at the motivations behind regional cooperation with case studies of the European Union and the African Union, and at human rights with reference to bodies as diverse as the International Criminal Court and Amnesty International. Assuming no prior knowledge of the subject, International Organizations uses a range of pedagogical tools and visual features to guide understanding. These include: graphs to illustrate key trends; regional and world maps to illustrate wealth, democracy and development; tables of major international treaties and organizations; chapter previews; and lists of key terms and organizations. The text also makes use of IOs in Theory, IOs in Action and Spotlight boxes to answer focused questions and provide more detail on how IOs operate in different parts of the world. This contemporary survey is an essential text for those studying global governance and international organizations.

The Ummah disrupts some of the assumptions of liberal citizenship, specifically the role of the individual and the secular characters of that citizenship. Such disruption is achieved through drawing on pre-colonial memories. Concerning the wider discussion on the global understanding of certain groups within established populations, this book traces how Muslims and non-Muslims in a single international organization help South African women interact with the norms of global partnership. The aim of writing this book is none other than to help readers understand the situation of women of South Africa confronting AIDS disease during the COVID-19 crisis. COVID-19 crises have caused clinical and deadly diseases in humans that extended to more groups of people around the world including women. This book provided satisfactory information regarding the role of the international front line in protecting and empowering women in South Africa particularly. This book specifically highlighted the role of the Joint United Nations Program on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) in dealing with HIV/AIDS in South Africa. South Africa is a country with a very high number of HIV in the world. HIV/AIDS is a disease that ranks number one in South Africa and number four globally. The high rate of HIV in South Africa is caused by modernization, a lack of public understanding of the dangers of HIV, and gender inequality. An international organization has taken responsible steps for the problem of HIV/AIDS in this country. UNAIDS is seen as a bearer of light for people in the world, especially for South African countries after providing aid programs in collaboration with other international organizations.

Regional integration was identified many years ago as being critical to Africa’s quest to overcome its colonially induced underdevelopment. To encourage this, several potentially significant programmes or projects have been stillborn or inadequately implemented. A network of relatively stable Regional Economic Communities (RECs) has been established, and one of its most ambitious initiatives – the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) – is now being ‘operationalised’. Written in the context of a global economy emerged in stagflation – a combination of stagnation and inflation – this book provides a deeper insight into pertinent conceptual and theoretical issues of vital importance to Africa’s development. It also presents case studies of several of the RECs, as well as the processes involved in constructing the AfCFTA. The subject matter of this book includes – African lingua franca and African knowledge systems The African Centres for Disease Control and Prevention Regional integration: Mission impossible?
