Question 1

_______was the Roman peace over most of the known world for centuries.

Accepted Answer

The Pax Romana was a period of relative peace and stability across the Roman Empire, lasting for over 200 years from 27 BCE to 180 CE. It was characterized by a strong central government, efficient administration, and the absence of major conflicts or wars within the empire's borders. The Treaty of Rome was a post-World War II agreement establishing the European Economic Community, Rome Britannica is not a historical term or event, and Ray Romano is a comedian and actor, not a historical figure or event.

Question 2

The concept that successful collaboration on one set of problems would encourage similar efforts in other areas is something emphasized by the

Accepted Answer

The functionalist school emphasizes the idea that successful collaboration on one set of problems would encourage similar efforts in other areas. They believe in the idea of "spillover," where cooperation and integration in one area can lead to cooperation and integration in other areas.

Question 3

The European Economic Community was established by the

Accepted Answer

The European Economic Community (EEC), also known as the Common Market, was established by the Treaty of Rome in 1957. The treaty was signed by six countries: Belgium, France, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, and West Germany. Its aim was to create a common market among its members, with the free movement of goods, services, people, and capital. The EEC was a predecessor to the European Union.

Question 4

______ is the school of thought purporting that by solving specific problems for states,international organizations could ensure peace and harmony.

Accepted Answer

Functionalism is the school of thought that believes that by solving specific functional problems (such as economic, health, and social issues) through international cooperation, peace and harmony can be ensured. Neoliberalism emphasizes free-market principles and minimal government intervention, while world federalism advocates for a world government. Organizationalism is not a well-known school of thought in international relations.

Question 5

Because collective goods are indivisible and nonexcludable,it creates a

Accepted Answer

Collective goods create a free-rider dilemma because individuals can benefit from the good without contributing to its provision or maintenance, leading to the potential for under-provision or non-provision. A security dilemma refers to a situation in which increasing one's own security decreases the security of others, while a prisoner's dilemma is a situation in which individuals have conflicting interests and the rational choice may not lead to the best outcome for all involved. A private goods dilemma is not a commonly recognized term.

Question 6

Which of these is an example of an international collective good?

Accepted Answer

Global Order is an example of an international collective good as it benefits all nations by promoting stability, predictability, and cooperation in international relations. It helps to reduce conflict and ensure the peaceful resolution of disputes between states. The other options are not international collective goods, as nuclear arms are a potential threat to international security, global warming is a global problem affecting everyone, and Walmart is a private company that provides goods and services for profit.

Question 7

Private goods are

Accepted Answer

Private goods are tangible things that can be possessed as property or consumed by an individual. They are not provided through the actions of individuals but are produced and distributed through the market system, and individuals are able to own them and use them as they see fit.

Question 8

The Bretton Woods system created the ______,a formal organization designed to maintain stable exchange rates.

Accepted Answer

The Bretton Woods System created the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in order to maintain stable exchange rates between member countries. The UN, WTO, and ICC were not directly created by the Bretton Woods System.

Question 9

The term "security community" refers to people sharing

Accepted Answer

A security community is a group of states or other entities that have developed a sense of community and trust, which leads them to avoid violent conflict and instead work towards peaceful solutions to any issues. This sense of community is often based on shared values, norms, and a commitment to peaceful change. While sharing a common language or culture may be factors that contribute to the development of a security community, they are not the defining characteristics. Joint economic rewards may provide an incentive for cooperation, but cooperation based solely on economic interests does not constitute a true security community.

Question 10

International organizations (IOs)are both the _________ and __________ of international law.

Accepted Answer

International organizations are both a product and a source of international law. They are a product of international law because they are created through treaties and their powers and duties are defined by international law. They are also a source of international law as they can create new norms and rules through their decisions and actions. Therefore, Choice C is the best answer as it accurately reflects IOs' role in international law.

Question 11

The first major European supranational authority was

Accepted Answer

The European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) was established in 1951, creating a supranational authority over the coal and steel industries of the six founding members: France, West Germany, Italy, Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands. This was the first step towards European integration and supranational decision-making, leading eventually to the formation of the European Union. The Council of Rome (1957), the European Atomic Energy Community (1957), and Pax Romana (a period of relative peace and stability in the Roman Empire) are not relevant to the formation of the first major European supranational authority.

Question 13

International organization refers to

Accepted Answer

International organization refers to the various ways in which states come together to cooperate and collaborate on issues of common interest in international politics. It includes institutions like the United Nations, World Trade Organization, and International Monetary Fund, as well as other forms of inter-state cooperation such as alliances, treaties, and regional organizations.

Question 14

Spillover refers to

Accepted Answer

Spillover refers to the phenomenon of cooperation in one issue area leading to cooperation in another issue area. It is often seen as a positive outcome of international cooperation, where success in one area inspires efforts in other areas.

Question 15

Which of the following strategies does not alleviate the free-rider problem?

Accepted Answer

Privatization does not alleviate the free-rider problem, as private companies still face the issue of individuals benefitting from public goods without paying for them. Coercion, rewards, and education can all potentially address the free-rider problem by incentivizing individuals to contribute to the provision of public goods.

Question 16

Public goods are

Accepted Answer

Public goods refer to goods or services that are non-excludable and non-rivalrous in consumption, which means that individuals cannot be excluded from their benefits and their use by one person does not diminish their availability for others. Therefore, public goods are provided through the actions of individuals, but they belong to the group as a whole and cannot be possessed or consumed by an individual as property. Choice A refers to private goods and choice C is partially correct but not specific enough. Choice D is incorrect.

Accepted Answer

A security community emphasizes peaceful change, ability and willingness to accommodate new demands and needs, as well as harmonization of interests. All of these elements are important in building and maintaining a secure and stable environment.

Question 19

What two special characteristics do collective goods possess?

Accepted Answer

Collective goods are characterized by being nonrivalrous (one person's consumption does not reduce availability for others) and nonexclusive (no one can be effectively excluded from using the good).

Question 20

World federalism refers to

Accepted Answer

World federalism refers to the establishment of a world government, which would have authority over all member states and be responsible for global issues such as security, human rights, and the environment. This would require a significant surrender of sovereignty by individual countries in favor of a centralized authority.
