I want particularly to recognize and thank three separate coauthors with whom I developed some of the ideas presented in this essay: Martha Finnemore, Margaret Keck and Thomas Risse. The stimulating exchanges and joint writing projects with each of these scholars have greatly contributed to my thinking on these issues, but (as always) they are not to blame for any of the mistakes.
