Same basic rights everywhere ( what sovereignty is based on) Threats to stability (stop spread of nuclear weapon)s. Definition: principles/norms, rules, decision making procedures, international community developed for common concerns. Coordination issues (realism, liberalism, constructivism: what is coordination. Standards: coordinate activities to do the same thing, everyone has relatively similar interest, coordination issues examples (aviation, telecommunication) Collaboration (liberalism, constructivism: what is collaboration. Harder to get collaborative regimes, don"t expect them to be effective. Agree on standards on where satellite go. Rules are set up so planes can easily cross boarders, mails delivered across borders. Tv, radio and satellite are compatible: collaboration issue examples (global warming, trade) how much they think will be affected by the climate change.
