Yanıt Açıklaması: Heywood notes that a great power is “deemed to rank amongst the most powerful in a hierarchical state-system” and identifies four criteria for being a member of this so-called “great power club”: • “Great powers are in the first rank of military prowess, having the capacity to maintain their own security and, potentially, to influence other powers. • They are economically powerful states; although (as Japan shows) this is a necessary but not a sufficient condition for great power status. • They have global, and not merely regional, spheres of interests. • They adopt a ‘forward’ foreign policy and have actual, and not merely potential, impact on international affairs” Therefore, the correct option is A.

Yanıt Açıklaması: Global governance takes place through interacting rules, norms, international law, international regimes, ad hoc arrangements, global conferences and structures such as intergovernmental and non- governmental organizations. Each of these means is a critical factor in managing global issues (Karns and Mingst, 2004: 4). Apart from these means or pieces of global governance, there are interacting and linked actors in global governance toward sustaining international order and managing trans- national issues in the international system. Among others, states, intergovernmental organizations, non-governmental organizations, experts, and multinational corporations should be singled out in this process of global governance.

Yanıt Açıklaması: A middle-range state in the international system may be defined as “one that is neither great nor small in terms of its power, capacity, and influence; and exhibits the capability to create cohesion and obstruction toward global order and governance” (Karim, 2018: 3). The middle-range states have an important role especially within international organizations. Although such states do not individually have a leadership role in international organizations, they are able to follow an effective policy when they act collectively. In addition, the middle-range states have some individual roles in the international system in foreign-policy issues such as coalition-builder, mediator, public diplomacy promoter, perception manager, and bridge-builder.

Yanıt Açıklaması: Health is another major area of global governance. When nations came together to form the UN in 1945, one of the proposals on the agenda was setting up a global health organization. Thus, the Constitution of the World Health Organization (WHO) came into force on April 7, 1948. Therefore, we now celebrate April 7 as the world health day. All members of the UN are also members of WHO, which is located in Geneva/ Switzerland. Its primary purpose is to promote global health. WHO is mandated to direct and coordinate authority on international health within the UN system in several ways, including to: • provide leadership on matters critical to health and engage in partnerships where joint action is needed, • shape the research agenda and stimulate the generation, translation, and dissemination of valuable knowledge, • set norms and standards and promote and monitore their implementation, • articulate ethical and evidence-based policy options, • provide technical support, catalyze change, and build sustainable institutional capacity, • monitore the health situation and assess health trends (http://www.who.int). WHO has been very successful in controlling malaria and other diseases of the poorer countries. While WHO has undertaken some specific health issue campaigns, its central strategy is based on primary healthcare, including health education, food supply and nutrition, safe water, sanitation, immunization, disease prevention, and the provision of essential drugs. Because of overlapping goals, WHO works closely with other UN bodies such as UNICEF, the Refugee Agency, the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), and the World Food Programme (WFP) to coordinate their activities.
