I.P.O. publications on democracy in the international context
 

Since the colloquium organized in New York on the occasion of the 40th anniversary of the United Nations, the International Progress Organization has continuously dealt with the basic questions of the democratization in international relations. In research meetings and roundtable discussions the problem of the applicability of democratic principles in the realm of international law was analyzed. The redefinition of democracy in comparison to oligarchic systems of decision-making has been one of the basic concerns of the research efforts of the I.P.O. Some of the publications resulting from these debates are presented here.
