Abstract Details

2007, Master of Arts (MA), Ohio University, International Studies - International Development Studies.
This thesis discusses interaction between international regimes, concentrating on regime overlap in light of the differentiation between purposes of international regimes. From this wide number of international agreements in the international system, this thesis argues that agreements can be created with different purposes: they can have a self-interest purpose or a moral purpose. These different purposes will be translated into the objectives of the agreements and will influence other characteristics of the agreements. Overlapping regimes gives a chance for countries to engage in forum shopping and choose the institution that best suits their interests. Powerful developed countries will take issues that are of their interest to self-interest purpose institutions and try to keep some issues in moral purpose agreements. These general considerations are going to be applied to a specific case of interaction: the relationship between the TRIPS and the CBD.
