Which one of the following is not an international organisation as per the definition given by Inis Claude ?
G-8
Inis L. Claude Jr., in Swords into Plowshares, treats international organisations as formal, permanent institutions created by agreement among states, possessing a constituent treaty or charter, regular membership, organs that meet periodically and a standing secretariat.
The G-8 (the G-7 plus Russia from 1997 until Russia's suspension in 2014) never had a founding treaty, legal personality, permanent headquarters or secretariat. It functions as an informal summit forum whose presidency rotates and whose agenda is set by the host, so it falls outside Claude's definition.
The United Nations rests on the 1945 Charter with principal organs and a Secretariat. SAARC was founded by its 1985 Charter and has a Secretariat in Kathmandu. NATO is based on the 1949 North Atlantic Treaty and has permanent headquarters, a Council and an integrated command. All three are international organisations in Claude's sense.
G-8 option is correct.
