Abstract

The report touches upon the institutional aspect of the mega-level of global economic system from theoretical perspective.

John Mearsheimer underlines that cooperation takes place in a world that is competitive at its core - one where states have powerful incentives to take advantage of other states. This point is graphically highlighted by European politics in the forty years before World War I. There was much cooperation among
the great powers during this period, but that did not stop them from going to war in 1914 .
