*INTERNATIONAL
ORGANIZATIONS

ORIGIN OF INTERNATIONAL
ORGANIZATIONS

In the nineteenth century, international organizations respond to two needs.

a general desire for peace and progress of peaceful relations (universal

international organization in principle as to its object and its geographical
extension).
And precise needs and limited to particular issues (multiple organizations)

the nineteenth century, the first international organizations to meet particular

needs primarily in the communications field and then in other state interests.
International organizations with universal vocation and political purposes
born after the First World War, the number of international organizations
currently exceeds the figure of 170.

* CONCEPT AND CHARACTERS

The term international organizations, is used in two
main ways.
The first relates to the way it is organized
international society (its structure).
The second refers to international organizations in
particular.
From the legal point there is no generally accepted
definition of international organizations, but has six
differences

* Interstate

Character: going beyond a national level and is an

association of states.
* Permanent organ system: this element separates organizations
of the conference that do not have a permanent organ system.
* Voluntary nature: are created by the will of a number of
states.
* Autonomous will: the organization has a different legally
recognized will of the member states (eg the UN through the
views expressed by the secretary general).
* Own competence: in the matters required by treaty.
* Institutionalized international cooperation: its purpose is to
meet the needs of achieving peaceful relations, collective
economic progress.

* CLASSIFICATION
For their participation:
* Universal. They are free to join the states that wish (UN)
* Restricted: for some reason, either geographically or otherwise, not all
countries belong to them (EU).
For your stuff:
* General competence: These organizations have no restrictions on the topics
covered (OAS).
* Specific competence: are organizations to address a problem or particular
topic (World Intellectual Property Organization).
By his method of cooperation:
* Control: oversee compliance with a treaty or convention.
* Operational: those acting on their own in the international arena (World
Bank).
* Integration: whose organs are traditionally comprised of members skills
sovereign powers of the states (EU).

*The legal status of

International
Organizations

International organizations have a distinct

separate legal existence of the set of
states that compose it.
International organizations can exercise
specific rights and assume obligations at
the national or international legal
framework.
The personality of organizations is limited
to its objectives and functions.
International organizations are
individualized entities, differing from its
functions and its objectives, so it is
impossible to refer to a single legal
personality for all.
International organizations to accomplish
their functions are called to act both in
domestic legal bodies States and
international legal order.

Creation

Dissolution

*The existence legal of

international organizations

* International organizations are created by an

international agreement between states.

* In the absence of territorial base organizations are
forced to establish in the territory of one or more
states, members or not of the organization.
* the existence of the organization is reflected in a
series of symbols, similar to those of States; such as
flag, abbreviations, hymns and others.
* The continuity of the Organization will not be
affected by that may increase or may decrease its
members.

*Creation

* An organization may transfer its functions to

another organization.
* For an organization to replace another need the
approval of the member states of the
organization.
* It may happen that the Deed of the new
organization contains a transitional period for the
succession of functions to another organization.

*Succession

* International organizations may also disappear

without any new organization come to

resume his duties.
* Sometimes the Treaty itself that it creates
fixed them a fixed period.
* Also, the disappearance of an organization may
be due to financial difficulties.

*Dissolution

* THE STRUCTURE AND FORMATION

OF THE WILL IN INTERNATIONAL
ORGANIZATIONS

States establish international organizations and these acquire own

bodies, which are independent and it have the mission to perform
functions that have objectives of common interest.
Furthermore, there is not institutional structure equal for all
Organizations, so this will go perfecting.

In conclusion; the organizational structure of organizations is not

static and it is not the same for all. Otherwise it will go adapting to
the new international circumstances.

As a result, organizations must be able to develop a different and

independent legal will than of its Member States. And the will once
already formed, is expressed through the decisions it takes.

*WORLD HEALTH

ORGANIZATION

*BACKGROUND AND DEFINITION

International cooperation in the health field was that given the nature of the issues
the international regulation was first considered necessary. The humanitarian
character of them is undeniable. On the other hand, improved communications also
made it necessary to extend the global field the fight against disease. Since 1850 came
succeeding Sanitary Conferences World.
The first took place in Paris in 1861 and adopted an international regulation on
quarantine systems - isolation for forty days during epidemics and lazarettos regime in
the Mediterranean.
As background must be put in quarantine relive General Convention adopted in 1930
and the creation under the Agreement in 1907 of the International Office of Public
Health, which brought together fifty-five states and was equipped with a permanent
committee based in Paris.
The League of Nations promoted international cooperation in preventing and
controlling diseases and created the so-called Health Organization of the League of
Nations with three organs called Secretariat Advisory Committee and Health
Committee.
In America was also created the Pan American Health Organization with a permanent
office.

The U.N took care to give some unity to the scattered efforts and convened
an International Conference on Health, held in New York in 1946, with the
participation of sixty-four States and observers from ten international
organizations.
In 1946 adopted the draft Constitution of the World Health Organization,
which entered into force in 1948 and it has undergone several amendments
this Conference.
The agreement concerning the relations of this organization with the United
Nations was approved by the United Nations General Assembly in 1946 and
entered into force in 1948, when it was approved by the Assembly of the
World Health Organization.
Since then has been operating the new specialized agency, which set its
headquarters in Geneva.
