Go to your room and do an inventory of everything you have in your

possession. You will find out that the most essential among the “things in
your room are footwear, clothes, computers (if any), cell phones,
televisions, (if possible), and may be radio. You may also notice books,
newspapers, news magazines, not to mention school supplies and
equipment.

Organize your inventory into two types:

Things that are made in Philippines

Those that are of foreign brands.

List the countries of origin of your foreign-brand items.

 Do the same thing for the kitchen and the living room. These should
include the appliances.

In class, compare your lists with those of your classmates to determine

which countries make the most household and personal needs you and
your families have. Make a similar list for the Philippines-made stuff. In
the process, discuss why certain products are made in the Philippines
while others are produced abroad.

IGO and a State

Date: OCTOBER 7,2020

Course, Year, and Section: BTLED 1-HE Score: ______________

Instructions:

The establishment of intergovernmental organizations is proof of the interstate

system. Form groups with four members each and discuss the effects of one
intergovernmental organization on governments. Relate it to the Philippine
context.
Choose one effect which you will explain on behalf of the group. Write your
answer on the space provided. (you can also use another sheet of paper.)

ANSWER

An intergovernmental organization is an organization composed primarily of sovereign

states, or of other intergovernmental organizations. IGOs are established by a treaty that
acts as a charter creating the group. But there are three additional issues that international
organizations confront if they want to enhance legitimacy and trust: governance issues,
conflicts of interest and poor leadership.Intergovernmental organizations (IGOs) have
become increasingly prominent both in facilitating conflict resolution between states, but
also in dealing with intractable conflicts within states. They serve a number of basic
functions that enhance the possibility of cooperation.

This may be attributed to globalization, which increases and encourages the co-operation
among and within states and which has also provided easier means for IGO growth as a
result of increased international relations. This is seen economically, politically, militarily, as
well as on the domestic level. Economically, IGOs gain material and non-material resources
for economic prosperity. IGOs also provide more political stability within the state and
among differing states.

Metacognitive Reading Report

Name: JAMES A. LOCAYLOCAY. Sore: _____________

Course, Year, & Section: BTLED 1-HE Date: OCTOBER 7,2020

Instructions: Read the reference article and complete the statements that follow.

Gehring, T. & Oberthur, S. (2009). The mechanism of interaction between

international institutions. European Journal for International Relations, 15 (1)
125-156.

The three (3) things that I significantly learned from the readings are…
 This article develops a conceptual framework for the systematic analysis of the interaction
between international institutions as a first step towards building a theory of international
interaction.

 It examines how international institutions may exert causal influence on each other's
development and effectiveness and suggests that four general causal mechanisms can
elucidate the distinct routes through which influence travels from one institution to another.

 The article also puts forward hypotheses about the likely effects of specific types of
institutional interaction for governance within the international system. The causal
mechanisms and types of interaction are mutually exclusive models that help analyse real-
world interaction situations. They may also serve as a basis for the systematic analysis of
more complex interaction.

The three (3) things that are still unclear to me are…

 Formalizing knowledge on international environmental regimes: A first step towards
integrating political science in integrated assessments of global environmental change.

 Institutional interaction can thus rely on transfer of knowledge, commitments established

under an institution, behavioural effects of an institution, and functional linkage of the
ultimate governance targets of the institutions involved.

 The ability of international institutions to influence each other's development and

effectiveness ('institutional interaction') is increasingly recognized.

I used to think that…

 The mechanism of interaction between international institutions do not exist in
isolation, but regularly interact with each other.
The three (3) questions that I want to ask about the readings are...
 What is the significance of knowing the mechanism of interaction between
international institutions?
 Do the mechanisms of interaction between interaction bonds strong international relations?

 How does this affect the international relations of the institutions?
