Abstract

The thesis entitled "The G8 leaders in international politics" opens important consideration in scenarios of global governance. The informal summit of leading industrialized countries of the world is, indeed, a subject little discussed in view of International Relations. The idea that this international forum is not one of international institutions and is not attributable either to the politico-legal category of international organizations makes the subject of great interest to those who intend to undertake a study in the theoretical field of institutionalism and rational constructivist. The survey carried out by the candidate has several problematic aspects.The first aspect relates "organization" involves a series of questions, related primarily to the relevance of an organizational reality that goes beyond the series of meetings and who has, by now, a certain amount of structure. A second sort of problems is concerned, however, the rules governing the meetings, especially with regard to the profiles on their nature (whether more or less legal) and effectiveness (if they are met or if there are forms of coercion in the case of Failure). A third set of problems concerns the deliberations of the G8 meeting, in terms of results produced, and therefore their effectiveness. Prior to the analysis, this was questioned about the reasons which led the International Relations of the subject to neglect or to provide a qualification that places the phenomenon among those not likely to produce significant effects in the political world. Among these, particular importance to the following factors: the fact that the G8 has not been established and is not governed by any act having normative value, this would have caused a marginal interest both in the field of legal science in the field of international relations, Secondly, the fact that "decisions" put in place represent the outputs are not easily attributable to the top "g" and thirdly to the observation that it does not have, properly none of the characteristics to qualify as an organization tout court; fourth, the assessment that it can not properly be regarded as an institution and as such does not create obligations for participants in fifth place, the fact that it does not have an apartment that would give effect to the administrative Finally, the actions agreed upon reflection that it is an international forum in a changing international political system is also fast changing.Abandoned this stage of the elaboration of the research question, my student has devoted part of its theoretical and methodological work to strengthen its scientific contribution. An entire chapter of his thesis deals exhaustively both methodological issues, and the various theories of international politics closer to the object of research.During the methodological framework is interesting to note that the student has drawn the lessons of Prof. Alberto Marradi, proceeding strictly within the channel's own methodology in the social sciences and integrating this knowledge with the characterizations typical of the methodological framework specification.With the theoretical part, has complied with the precept to which to write a thesis must be given anything for granted.
