BURGOS SILVA, José Germán. International Organizations and their Power Resources. An Analytical Proposal. Estud. Polit. [online]. 2019, n.54, pp.149-176. ISSN 0121-5167. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.espo.n54a07.
This study set out to answer the question of what can be considered to be the power resources of international organizations (IOs), as entities partially autonomous from the States that create them. It is argued that the production of certain regulations, the production of information, coercion, and the symbolic component are part of these resources. Thus, the existing literature is reviewed, while attempting to recognize the overlaps and limitations of these resources. The analysis is based on a sociopolitical vision of IOs that seeks to complement the dominant legal view of them; therefore, it goes beyond viewing IOs as mere instruments of States with delegated powers. The study establishes the existence of scopes that allow for the identification of spaces of autonomy and, as a consequence, of power over States by this kind of organizations.
