In peace-making processes for the conflicts in the international relations, there determined several methods and theories in searching for what is the more proper method or what is the more effective organizations in peace-making and peace-building processes for the conflicts in many parts of the world. In this regard, in some cases it has been found that international organizations became effective in peace-making or peace-building processes of conflicts, for instance the role of the United Nations (UN) cannot be disregarded in peace-making and solving the conflicts since it has been established so far. However, as being the regional organization, the European Union or the African Union, as well as The Arab League, have in many cases became …show more content…
Likewise, this research paper aims at determining, debating and arguing the effectiveness of the both regional organizations and international organizations in peace making in global crisis and conflicts, as it will be argued that both have different approaches and effects, as well as different competences in peace making in global sense, as both have quite indifferent organizational structure and culture.
II. The Effectiveness of the Regional Organizations in Peace-making:
Regional organization in many ways can be defined as organizations which are formed by the regional actors and states to make unity and solidarity in political, social, cultural, economic, as well as organizational issues by the member states. “A regional organisation’s peacemaking focus, orientation and effectiveness are shaped by historical, geographic, political and economic circumstances. The relevant factors include the process of state formation, the strength of states, their domestic politics and foreign policies, the level of development, the regional

For example, the United Nations, have been conducting its peace building mission in global sense since it was founded in 1942, evolving from the League of Nations, founded primarily for conflict resolution of the First and Second World Wars. However, according to Haddadi, the United Nations became now unable to resolute conflict, to international peace and security following the cold war because it was in this period that “the settlement of any dispute was on each organization, particularly regional organizations”. It is moreover stated that the cold war period created a bipolar world, as the world was divided in rival and hostile poles, as the world in those period entered into the world in opposite movements. “On the one hand we are witnessing the formation of larger political unions that blurred national boundaries and on the other hand, unity of the countries was threatened by nationalism, separatism and ethnic, religious, social, cultural and lingual violent conflicts. This is the threat that the Middle East region countries and people are currently facing”. It is therefore that although the UN as being the most successful international organization handled some conflicts in Kosovo,
The Peace Within A Separate Peace by John Knowles takes place in the summer of 1942 during World War II at The Devon School in New Hampshire. Gene Forrester becomes best friends with his roommate Phineas (nicknamed Finny) despite them having such different personalities. Gene is an introverted and uptight character, while Finny is more outgoing and carefree. Gene starts to feel envy for Finny because he thinks that everything comes so easy to him.(QUOTE)
The country has a new viewpoint of peace and joins other countries to create the United Nations, as a way to keep world peace and settle foreign affairs. “The United States now exerts a tremendous influence in the cause of peace throughout all the world” (Document F). Additionally, the charter for the United Nations was signed on June 26, 1945 and came into force on October 24, 1945. “We the peoples of the United Nations determined to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war, which twice in our lifetime has brought untold sorrow to mankind” (Document G). America agreed to this union to prevent another war from affecting the

A Separate Peace “ Explain how the title relates to the events of the novel and the themes of A Separate Peace. “ The title of this novel , A Separate Peace by John Knowles, relates to the story in a way that is not directly stated. Each reader must decipher the text to find the true meaning of the title. Each reader may have a different opinion on the underlying connotations of the title in relation to the novel. I have chosen to focus on the war aspect of this book, rather than the relationships between characters for I feel the novel would have a very different outcome, or overall feeling if the setting were anything but World War Two.
A Separate Peace, Unit Test Hamza Eldohiri The story “A Separate Peace”, written by John Knowles, was written at the time and takes place during World War II when battles and conflicts amongst nations were evident. Each nation involved struggled and fought their hardest in order to satisfy the good of their nation. Not only is the setting in the story taking place during this time of quarrel, the story also demonstrates areas of self-conflict and an internal battle throughout.

Israel, despite applying to the United Nations as soon as it received its independence, did not become a member until May 11, 1949. The intense conflict between Israel and Palestine is still relevant at the current time. In 2014, Palestine was still not considered an independent state by many countries, only increasing the already intense conflict between Israel and Palestine (Tharoor). In addition, Canada, the United States, and other European nations created the North Atlantic Treaty Organization; throwing America into an entangling alliance our first president warned us about (“Milestones”). Our decision to enter into this alliance set a precedence that the United States finally joined the world stage, and would continue to play an active role in social and political conflicts not only at home, but worldwide as
Also, the 1942 formation of the United Nations, made all 5 permanent members of the alliance, the United States, Great Britain, France, China, and the Soviet Union, responsible for defending and protecting one another in the joined fight against terrorism. This organization is still in effect today, and marks the ultimate downfall of isolationism in America.(“History of the
Strength develops in someone through their experiences which have the ability to make them an emotionally stronger person. A quote by Ernest Hemingway presents that “the world breaks everyone, then some become strong at the broken places.” Even those who suffer the most will have the ability to bounce back at a stronger state. This theme reveals its relevance in A Separate Peace by John Knowles as we analyze the strengths and weaknesses of the main characters, Finny and Gene. Although some may insist that Finny’s emotional state fits the mold of a weak character, I have confidence that Finny has the most inner strength out of the two boys given his description and actions throughout the novel.
It had a lot of terms to try to maintain world peace. Cold war tensions between the USSR and the USA prevented a permanent UN force from being created. As an alternative, the UN decided to send temporary military forces into the world regional hotspots to keep the peace. Military officials were sent to the Pakistan-India region of Kashmir. The same action was taken the following month along the Arab-Israeli borders in Palestine.
After the war and the creation of the United Nations, the U.N decided to make
Sometimes internal wars can be fought just as vehemently and result in as many casualties as an external war. John Knowles shows us this in his novel, A Separate Peace. During the time of this story, WW2 rages on, whilst the main character, Gene Forrester, battles his own internal conflicts just as violently. From the beginning, you can see that the entire novel is revolved around the happenings of World War 2.
To What Extent Should Internationalism be Pursued? “The most tragic paradox of our time is to be found in the failure of nation-states to recognize the imperatives of internationalism.” Earl Warren (14th Chief Justice of the USA) The author of this source is explaining the fatal flaw in how nation states are governed. This fatal flaw is the neglection and underuse of internationalism.

Therefore, this paper is designed to illustrate reasons why the UNSC should be reformed. The first and foremost factor to why the UNSC should be reformed is because the veto power used within the council only revolves around the permanent members’ interests. By 1990s, one
With the security council as its quasi-leader, the UN is able to generate and pass out resolutions when international matters need to be addressed. Though, like every IGO, the UN is non binding, IGOs like the UN survive based off the four principles aforementioned in the second paragraph. The UN has been successful in resolving several conflicts, which is an idea that stays parallel with neoliberal theory. Through varying peace enforcement measures, the UN has managed to resolve conflicts such as the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait, reach and establish peace in Cote d’ivoire, and resolve ethnic conflict in Kosovo. Though these initiatives required the use of force, they helped reduce war and genocide, and returned the world to the status
