G8 alone. The agent is often a G8-centred ministerial or official-level institution or
an international institution, and is thus coded in those categories, rather than as an
agent.
6. Remit mandate is a requirement to report back to the summit. Such mandates
provide the built-in iteration, repeated games, and so-called long shadow of the
future featured by several theories of international cooperation. a commitment to
re-examine an issue at a ministerial meeting, rather than at the actual summit, is
coded as the use of a timetable, not a remit mandate.
7. money mobilised refers to new money promised at the summit to implement
G8 commitments, as highlighted by classic theories of international organisation. It
includes:
a. money committed by the G8;
b. money committed by another agency, group, institution, etc.; and
c. reaffirmations of previously committed money.
A commitment to provide the 'necessary', 'sufficient', or 'proficient' resources
or 'necessary funding', etc., for a target is also considered money mobilised. also
included are participation at a donors conference and 'closing the resource gap'.
'Providing aid' or 'assistance' is not counted as money mobilised.
8. G8-Centred Body: other G8 Body refers to any mention of a G8-centred or
G8-created body or institution (other than the G7 finance ministers or G20 finance
ministers and central bank governors) at the ministerial or official level.
9. International Institution: other International organisation refers to any
mention of an international institution (other than the World Health Organization),
its directors or staff, activities, meetings, initiatives, or programmes.
10. International Institution: World Health organization refers to mentions of
or instructions to the World Health Organization, its directors or staff, activities,
meetings, initiatives, or programmes.
11. Past Promise reaffirms, continues, or presses ahead with a past commitment by
referring explicitly to such a promise from the past.
