Supranationalism is a method of decision-making in multi-national political communities, wherein power is transferred to an authority broader than governments of member states. Because decisions in some supranational structures are taken by majority votes, it is possible for a member-state in those unions to be forced by the other member-states to implement a decision. Unlike in a federal supra-state, member states retain nominal sovereignty, although some sovereignty is shared with, or ceded to, the supranational body. Full sovereignty can be reclaimed by withdrawing from the supranational arrangements. A supranational authority, by definition, can have some independence from member state governments, although not as much independence as with federal governments. Supranational institutions, like federal governments, imply the possibility of pursuing agendas in ways that the delegating states did not initially envision.

Another method of decision-making in international organizations is intergovernmentalism, in which state governments play a more prominent role.

Would an African Union similar to the EU be good for Africa?
Q. The African Union (AU) is a supranational union consisting of fifty-three African states. Established in 2001, the AU was formed as a successor to the amalgamated African Economic Community (AEC) and the Organization of African Unity (OAU). Eventually, the AU aims to have a single currency (the Afro) and a single integrated defense force, as well as other institutions of state, including a cabinet for the AU Head of State. The purpose of the union is to help secure Africa's democracy, human rights, and a sustainable economy, especially by bringing an end to intra-African conflict and creating an effective common market. Oh, I don't think that it is possible now either. I just posed the query.

A. 1. spread of idea of independence from outside rulers, breakup of colonial empires of France, England, Belgium, Netherlands 2. Nation state is a country (for this discussion, a state is not one of the 50 US states but an independent country) whose inhabitants are nearly all of the same nation. Japan is a good example. 3. A country that had colonies sent some people to the colony to supervise government or business, so there were european Belgians, Portuguese, English in their colonies in Africa, Spaniards in Cuba, Puerto Rico, the Philippines, etc. 4. If my vague understanding of this question is correct, the best example is people from India who have spread around the world seeking work. Everyone who is ethnically from India is not in… [cont.]
