international system

 
     
  The network of relationships which exists at the international level, including therefore the role in those relationships of international organizations, non-governmental organizations, and other non-state actors. Inasmuch as sovereign states play the leading role in these relationships, the term international system is often used, particularly in American writing, to refer to the collectivity of states. However, the content and reverberations of the term international society better convey certain basic features of the collectivity of states than does the term international system.
