Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: This paper asks why IGOs take action in international dyadic disputes. Three key determinants of action—organizational attributes, conflict attributes, and disputant attributes may each affect the likelihood of IGOs acting in international conflicts. In short, if the preferences of IGO members are primary in determining IGO action, then one would expect to see a relationship between the IGO member types and the target disputants of IGO action. However, if IGOs are driven by norms above and beyond the interests of the member states, then one would expect to see certain attributes of the conflict—such as duration, hostility level, and fatality level—as important motivators of IGO actions. Using PANDA data from 1984 to 1994, I code the level of IGO action for all dyadic disputes lasting longer than 24 hours. The cross tabulation, multinomial logits, and predicted probabilities suggest that intergovernmental organizations function as both norm generators and as venues to help states collaborate in action which supports their status quo preferences.
