Hundreds of intergov'al org's have been formed since 1815, & since 1945 non-gov'al internat org's have multiplied. Most of these have exercised or are exercising a marked influence upon politics. The United Nations itself fosters the development & the strengthening of pressure groups by maintaining connections with non-gov'al org's thru the Econ & Soc Council & by receiving petitions from various groups from dependent territories through the Council on Protectorates. UNESCO presupposes the formation of nat commissions representing educ, sci & cultural activities. Finally, a pressure group may be an individual who is playing a part in internat politics. The exact effects of pressure groups are difficult to analyze without a precise definition of such groups & some technique for measuring their influence. Tr by J. A. Broussard from IPSA.
