Multilateralism is an international relations term that refers to multiple countries working in concert. Most international organizations, such as the United Nations and the World Trade Organization, are multilateral in nature. The main proponents of multilateralism have traditionally been the middle powers such as Canada and the Nordic countries. Larger states often act unilaterally, while the smaller ones may have little direct power at all in international affairs aside from participation in the United Nations (by consolidating their U.N. vote in a voting bloc with other nations, for example). The converse of multilateralism is unilateralism in terms of political philosophy.

Multilateralism is a diplomatic approach that involves multiple countries working together on common issues or goals, often through international organizations or agreements. It promotes cooperation and collaboration in addressing global challenges such as trade, security, and climate change. By engaging multiple stakeholders, multilateralism aims to foster collective decision-making and enhance the effectiveness of international policies. This framework contrasts with unilateralism, where a single nation acts independently.

President George H.W. Bush's diplomatic skills were notably demonstrated in the context of the Gulf War, particularly with the coalition formed to respond to Iraq's invasion of Kuwait in 1990. His administration successfully rallied a broad coalition of countries, including allies from Europe, the Middle East, and beyond, showcasing the effectiveness of multilateralism in addressing global security threats. This coalition not only emphasized collective action but also highlighted the importance of international cooperation in foreign policy.
(Internationalism)Internationalism is the attitude or policy of cooperating with other nations for the good of the world. Americans and, even more so, peoples in Europe and Asia had faced hardships during World War II. The U.S. hoped an internationalist policy would prevent another war from happening. This is the main reason the U.S. helped create, and then joined, the United Nations.
