A Comparison Of The Political Approaches Of The League Of Nations And The United Nations
[ send me this paper ]
The success of the United Nations is based on a conglomeration of many political ideologies and precepts. The unshakable liberalism of democratic values, in concert with the idealistic belief in cooperative security brought Woodrow Wilson to the fore of international politics and was the foundation for the League of Nations. The time was not right, there was too many domestic problems in the world for the League to have the power it needed to handle international conflicts. After World War II, with the change in outlook of domestic policy in the United States and in the Soviet Union, in combination with the neorealist philosophy based on balance of power, the time was right for the establishment of an organization based on cooperative security and the United Nations was founded. This 7 page paper examines the forces that brought the League of Nations into being, explores the reasons it was not able to maintain power and looks at the processes used to conceive the United Nations as the force it is today. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Numerous examples and international case law are provided and it is ultimately concluded that unless a distinction between self-determination and secession is made and understood, the right of self-determination will either drag the world body politic into violence and chaos, or the principle itself will have to be considered one that has outlived its usefulness and could undermine the potential for democratic development.

Conflict Resolution / State vs. Non-State Societies
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page paper that discusses the anthropological beginnings of the nation-state, and how states and non-states deal with social conflict.
