Interstate bargaining and cooperation characterize international relations. Only cooperation allows states to mutually gain, but collaboration costs encourage states to betray others to maximize utility. International institutions mitigate these costs, transform zero sum interactions into positive sum interactions, and aid interstate cooperation.

Hegemony Promotes Cooperation Over the past century, international trade and cooperation have risen exponentially. As states enter cooperative agreements and trade barriers crumble, the international system experiences stability and growth.

Trends of International Economic Cooperation International trade is an often-vexing field of study. The breadth of its scope, and the multitude of political, socio-economic, and strategic components that influence its inputs and outputs, can seem staggeringly huge, frustrating attempts to narrow in on and accurately study a select topic.
