Ban Ki-moon

One of the main lessons I have learned the last five years as Secretary-General is that the United Nations cannot function properly without the support of the business community and civil society. We need to have tripartite support - the governments, the business communities and the civil society.

I've been bothered about time generally and our tripartite division of time into past, present, and future. I think I know what the past is, and I think I know what future is, but I'm really not comfortable with the notion of present.

I mentioned that one of the tripartite formulas in American worldview involves time: past, present, and future.

In a tripartite government with its checks and balances, we have lost the balances.

American Politician

When 'tripartite' describes something, it usually involves a structure split into three distinct sections or roles.

Three-Part Composition

'Tripartite' suggests that the parts or roles are equally significant, not necessarily equal in size or scope.

Equal Division

'Tripartite' is often used in formal agreements or legal documents to show a structured arrangement into three.

Formal Contexts

'Tripartite' in this sense emphasizes participation or agreement among three distinct parties or groups.

Multi-party Involvement

Often used in international contexts, where treaties, dialogues, or efforts involve three entities.

Diplomacy and Relations

'Tripartite' can often indicate a structured mediation process with three involved parties.
