G7/G8 and G20
Definition
- The acronyms G7/G8 (Group of Seven/Eight) and G20 (Group of Twenty) denote two informal interstate coalitions that coordinate the policies of nation-states in regularly held summits at the ministerial or heads-of-state level. This informal mode of governance contrasts the highly organized, formal decision-making mechanisms typically analyzed in international relations studies, such as in the United Nations, International Monetary Fund, World Bank, and World Trade Organization.
