Summary/Abstract: Multilateral cooperation is built on the bedrock of security. While it all started in terms of physical security, with nation states working together to prevent outright conflicts, the notion expanded to include issues of economic security and then spread into practically all spheres of life. The notion of security also defines its mechanics. Smaller states feel safer if multilateral rather than unilateral action is taken on a certain issue, while bigger states get added value from lower costs compared to unilateral action.
