NATO Quint, The G7, the BRICS nations and the G20 are seen by academics as forms of governments that exercise varying degrees of influence within the international system.

Alternative terms used by academics and observers to describe this concept include "intermittent Major power" or "small Great power", asserting that Italy's position in the international arena can be described in this way.
