Abstract: So far, among the changes in the theoretical orientation of the English School, there are four research approaches to international organizations: the classic English School, solidarism, the regional turn, and the practice turn. The different theoretical approaches of the British school have always focused on the two main themes of whether international organizations have the attributes of being international social institutions and the relationship between international organizations and the international social institutions. The theoretical orientation of the classic English school determines that international organizations do not possess the attributes of being international social institutions, but have an impact on the functioning of international social institutions, while solidarism also fails to recognize that international organizations have features of international social institutions, but sees international organizations as a tool for institutionalizing human rights. The regional turn and the practice turn both regard international organizations as secondary institutions of international social institutions, while the former believes that there is a conditional oneway relationship between the primary international social institutions and international organizations and the later proposes a dialectical interconnection between them.
