Globalisation must have, as a critical component, international dispensation in the locality of U.N. institutions. It cannot be, and must not be, business as usual in the establishment and location of international institutions, especially of the United Nations.

The reality is that international institutions like the UN can only be as effective as its members allow it to be.

I mean that the time where we need International agreement more than ever on the environment and the rest, poverty we are breaking up our International Institutions and the rule of law and Tony Blair is part of it.

There should be resolutions adopted in top international institutions, which are binding on all states and governments in the world, to forbid the defamation of religions.

International institutions ought to be, as the national ones in democratic countries, established by the peoples and for the peoples.

Trade, tourism, cultural exchange, and participation in international institutions all serve to erode the legitimacy of repressive regimes.

Once the violence has ceased, the US should immediately call on the World Bank and other international institutions to convene a donors conference to rebuild Lebanon's shattered infrastructure.

The issue with international institutions is that there is a crisis of legitimacy. Trust in these institutions is a serious problem.
