Abstract: The importance of countries as actors in international economy is the basis of global economic governance. Though the world has increasingly become more integrated in terms of economics, it continues to be politically fragmented in independent states, which follow their own interests. In general, the countries choose the organizations which serve best their interests. But they seek also to achieve their goals through building coalitions with other states, seeking to solve problems of mutual interest directly and in a pragmatic way. Global economic governance requires the development of agreements and coalitions of states or groups of states and, also, the creation of ad-hoc multilateralism, which has to deal, in particular, with peace and security problems.
