About this ebook

 When the world shrunk as countries around the world started communicating to each other and trading with each other, it became important to extend the policies and regulations of a country in order to accommodate the relations established with other countries. This is when international organizations began to see the light of the day. Countries required co-operation from each other in order to live together in the world and share the resources available.

United Nations System was not the first organization to see the need for co-operation among countries. It began as early as 1865 when the International Telecommunication Union was founded. The organization now exists as a part of the UN specialized agencies. Then in 1899 Hague became the site for the International Peace Conference which eventually led to the establishment of the Permanent Court of Arbitration in 1902. The objective of this organization was to settle crises peacefully and to avoid war.
