Research Abstract |
It is very difficult to understand what is NGO, although recently NGOs have been raid attention in the field of domestic politics and international relation. We have researched from three common viewpoint ; the system and activity of NGO, the relation between NGO and domestic organizations, and the relation between NGO and international community (regional and global level). After three years' our research, we got the findings which are described below. a) We should consider not only the NGO itself as an actor, but also the various interrelations around NGO, such as the interrelation between the NGOs, its interrelation with the government of The donor state, its interrelation with the government of the recipient state. b) The recent tendency is the deepening of these interrelations. It can be jointed out that the typical factors which facilitate the tendency are INTERNET, the development of regionalism and the like. c) The activity of NGOs have been desired more and more in the Post-Cold War period in which the development of international relation in three levels (national, regional and global) have become connected with each other, because NGOs can act in the all three levels. d) The activity of NGOs have been desired around the issues which it is difficult for the existing actors to deal with. It can be pointed out as such issues, democratization, gender, developmental assistance, labor movement, medical service, education, environment, and ethnic conflict.
