The UN General Assembly and the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) play crucial roles in global social and economic governance. Both UN bodies contribute to standard-setting, norm entrepreneurship, interstate and state-civil society cooperation, and the codification of international law with regard to political, economic, humanitarian, social, and legal issues. The General Assembly and ECOSOC are based on the one state/one vote principle. While ECOSOC is the principal UN body that is mainly responsible for the UN’s economic and social programs.
