The international community is made up of many state actors who contribute in one form or another to creating a world capable of creating fundamental public goods. When more than one nation tries to unite to achieve its collective goods, the nation may face a variety of problems. There are times when countries may need to come together to make decisions on specific topics such as global warming, ozone depletion, space exploration, and many other issues that require group attention (Stiles p269). A collective good does not belong to a specific player, cannot be denied to a player, and can be used by all players. When referring to collective assets, there must be an investment otherwise expenses may be accrued in the asset by the player(s). The decision to be made is which actor will make the investment and this is agreed through negotiation. One of the many influences on the creation of collective goods is the Kyoto Protocol. The Kyoto Protocol focuses on many issues that cross national borders and require the attention of more than one country at a time. This leads to an international business situation where various countries have to resolve problems of a cross-border nature (Stiles p.268). For this to happen, countries must first recognize that the need for a collective good exists. The problem arises, however, when countries use their own judgment to determine how and whether they should contribute to the collective good. Some countries might suggest that the country that caused the most damage should be the responsible party and should contribute the most money (Stiles p269). It rarely happens that all the countries involved offer to contribute without any hesitation. He is… middle of paper… afraid of other powerful countries (US and Russia). This changed during the end of the Cold War, giving rise to a new era of promise and an evolving international order (Grant p572). In 1994, the Global Conference on the Sustainable Development of Small Island Developing States made it clear that the national, regional and international levels must work together to achieve better outcomes (Grant p581). In this conference, third world countries and the United Nations should also focus more on difficult economic issues. The Development Agenda was created to address sensitivity to development concerns and the influence of global development policy decisions that were aborted 15 years ago at the Cancun Summit (Grant p582). Global transformation will focus on promoting the interests of groups that are universal members of the United Nations.
