Description
Multilateral diplomacy is particularly significant for smaller states which have limited diplomatic networks. The international organizations, considered to be an institutionalized form of multilateralism, present an ideal place for the promotion of policies and interest of their member-states giving them sense of equality. Generally, big and small nations, powerful and weak states are given an equal weight in terms of voting rights and power to decide on various issues on the agenda of the international organizations. So, if multilateralism promotes the equality of states, it also indirectly influences the democratization of the world political system due to the direct involvement of all member states in creating norms and principles for the organization of the international relations. Consequently, small states are interested in being active promoters of international organizations because they can achieve twofold goals- decide on relevant issues for the international community on an equal footing with much more powerful states and influence the creation of more balanced international politics which take on board their concerns. Within the international organizations, which are often seen as "diplomatic bourses", states exchange views, ideas, information, experiences and jointly create policies with regional or global outreach as an adequate response to their common problems. These processes of interaction are also a learning experience enabling faster political and social maturation for both- states individually and the international institutions.
