5.1.5. United Nations – UN


Another organization regulating globalization is the UN. Its roots go back to the International Telecommunication Union, 1865. The name "United Nations", coined by United States President Franklin D. Roosevelt, was first used in the "Declaration by United Nations" of 1 January 1942. Today the UN has 192 member states.
The organization is central to global efforts to solve problems that challenge humanity. Cooperating in this effort are more than 30 affiliated organizations, known together as the UN system. Day in and day out, the UN and its family of organizations work to promote respect for human rights, protect the environment, fight against disease and reduce poverty. With more than 70% of the work of the UN system, one of the UN's central mandates is the promotion of higher standards of living, full employment, and conditions of economic and social progress and development. In order to achieve these goals, some tools are as follows:

  • Grant free access to their markets for good produced in poor countries,

  • Implement debt relief program, including cancellation of all official debts of the heavily indebted poor countries, in return for those countries making demonstrable commitments to poverty reduction,

  • Grant more generous development assistance,

  • Work with pharmaceutical companies and other partners to develop an effective and affordable vaccine against HIV,

  • Make special provision for the needs of Africa.

5.2. International Integrations


International agreements that promote international trade are significant mediums of globalization. The most well-known integration is the European Union which constitutes integration besides a free-trade agreement or area. There are also other agreements which increase international trade. These kinds of integrations, whether free trade agreements or integrations, foster the globalization process by increasing trade, exchange of goods, services and labor and consequently cultures.
