What about a comparison chart as seen over at South American Community of Nations?—Tokek 06:10, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
[edit] International organization v. Intergovermental organization
The acronym IGO stands for, as far as I know, Intergovermental organization and not International organization. Would anyone disagree if it was moved? NisseSthlm 10:58, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
- Certainly that is so, but it seems the conceit of the article-writers is that "international organization" is an acceptable layman's substitute for "intergovernmental organization", which is a term rarely encountered by non-experts. Perhaps this should be clearer in the article.--Pharos 04:53, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
International organization IS NOT an acceptable layman's term for IGO. An International organization can be a corportation like Coca-Cola or something, or an NGO like the Red Cross. I think this should be made clearer. An IGO is specificially associated with world governments working together. By the way it's goverNmental, not goverment.
