Description: International organizations have drastically increased in number since the end of the Second World War, while also becoming more sophisticated and advanced. Despite this, little work has been done within international relations to evaluate the power of these structures independent of and in relation to other actors in the global system. This groundbreaking study assesses the impact and power of African IOs in the international system via case studies from Togo, Mauritania, and Ŝo Tom̌ and Pr̕ncipe, and to reasonably determine the role they may play in the future.
