1. What is the Law of International Organizations?
If you look at this news website what do you see that is relevant to
this course?
- The UN Chinees trade tensions international trade
international economic law international organization:
WTO.
- Brexit
- The UN in relation to Tunisia, a migration agency in
specific so the UNHCR is mentioned
My point of viewing this website to you all is that international organizations,
international law in general is relevant. It regulates our daily lives.
Here on the right you see some organizations even though this
might not be entirely correct. There is a logo in the picture that
strictly speaking is not a international organization.
Greenpeace is not an international organization because it is a
non-governmental organization, NGO.
