When enacting foreign policies, governments face a choice between unilateralism, bilateralism and multilateralism. Unilateralism and multilateralism represent different policy approaches to international problems. Arguably, the Bush administration favored bilateralism over multilateralism, or even unilateralism, for similar reasons. They preferred multilateralism, but did not reject unilateralism. The converse of multilateralism is unilateralism, in terms of political philosophy. These principles include unilateralism and the use of preemptive war. It should not be shrouded in secrecy, steeped in unilateralism or tinged with partisanship. As a word, "unilateralism" is attested from 1926, specifically relating to unilateral disarmament. Unilateralism is any doctrine or agenda that supports one-sided action. The party is against Israeli unilateralism and occupation of the Palestinian territories. He objected to military unilateralism as reflected in the Iran-Contra policy of the 1980s. Thus 'power' has a connotation of unilateralism. Such calls for unilateralism were eventually disregarded, and the Barisan Nasional government continued. Debates about unilateralism came up with the Iraq War. Labour leader Neil Kinnock persuaded the party to abandon unilateralism in 1989.
