InternationalInternational or internationally describes interaction between nations or encompassing several nations. Especially in the United States, "international" is also commonly used to mean "outside of the country." Many non-American English speakers object to this usage in material written for a worldwide audience. Global is commonly used nowadays as a synonym for international, but such usage is incorrect. This is because "global" implies "one world" as a single unit, while "international" recognizes that different peoples, cultures, languages, nations, borders, economies, and ecosystems exist. Nonetheless such usage is found in widely-used media buzzwords such as the "Global Economy". In team sports, "International" commonly refers either to a match between two national teams, or to a player capped by his national team. In politics, "The International" — such as, the "First International", the "Second International", or the "Socialist International" — may be short for any league of communist, radical, socialist, or union organizations from multiple countries. This is celebrated in The Internationale, a famous Socialist song. List of left-wing internationals World community Check out the following recipes that are tagged "International":
