	Outline of a Civil Foreign Policy Multilateralism
		Multilateralism in international politics means that a state pursues its interests and goals beyond its national borders, not alone, but in cooperation and coalitions with other states.
		The opposite of multilateralism is unilateralism: a policy in which a state relies only on its own strengths, whether based on a strong economy, a high technological standard, or armed forces with sophisticated weapons.
		In general terms, a multilateral foreign policy is softer than its unilateral counterpart.

	Political spectrum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Origin of state authority: popular sovereignty (the state as a creation of the people, with enumerated, delegated powers) vs. various forms of absolutism and organic state philosophy (the state as an original and essential authority)
		International action: Multilateralism (states should cooperate and compromise) versus Unilateralism (states have a strong, even unconditional, right to make their own decisions).
		A one-axis model is highly over-simplified, and lumps together fairly different political propositions; in particular, as seen before, there are many ways to define the left-right spectrum, which do not yield the same classifications.

		It has become a cliché that we live in an interconnected world, but cliché or not, globalization in its many and complex dimensions is one of the defining facets of our times.
		To turn the market opportunities created by either multilateral trade agreements or their own trade policy reform into concrete gains requires an investment to make markets work and endow the poor with the assets they need to compete.
		Developing countries also need to be actively engaged in the multilateral process of agricultural trade liberalization as they have much to gain.
