Issue: Criminal Accountability of UN Officials on mission

Position: Head Chair/Co-Chair Introduction The criminal accountability of the UN Officials on mission is one of the legal issues, which has been debated through the Legal Committee for numerous years. The legal gaps make it difficult for the UN to hold personnel accountable for crimes committed in the missions under its jurisdiction. The UN personnel are being currently accountable only to their countries and their legislation or being protected by the international legal statute of immunity. The lack of accountability makes the whole organization less credible and reliable. With two different groups of UN personnel the troop contributing countries ...

The main belief that Bennett communicates is coordinated charity; she is opposed to uncoordinated charity work. She says that results in delay in the most efficient emergency responses from trained people such as the army, firefighters, and medical practitioners (Bennett). I am in agreement with the author’s claims. Moreover, I am impressed by the way she blatantly attacks the people that involve themselves with the emergency responses yet they have no training at all. The society needs such authors that illuminate the real issues facing different communities. Additionally, the fact that the author provides alternatives for people to ...

Humans have long been capable of being a space-faring civilization. Thanks to the numerous advancements and breakthroughs in engineering, communications, and perhaps most importantly, rocket technology, people from various countries managed to send objects and humans to space. The space age officially started when the Soviet Union’s space exploration agency successfully launched its first man made object into the earth’s orbit. It was named Sputnik 1, a man-made satellite. Because the post-World War Two era was mostly a rivalry between the United States and the Soviet Union, it did not take long for the United States, under ...

The ethics behind the space exploration frenzy has remained persistent for many years now. However, never has space exploration elicited more debate, controversy and calls for abandonment than the days that followed the space shuttle Challenger accident.

Putting human beings on the Mars has constantly been a subject of science fiction for quite some time now. Notably, in the late 1960s when humanity finally set its foot on the moon, it appeared as though human beings were just a small step away from reaching the Mars. However, with the winning of the Space Race, public interest, as well as, excitement, an arguable most significant factor i.e. funding commenced waning as times passed consequently reaffirming the assertion that we are still not closer to the Mars as it was the situation in the 1960s. As it stands, ...

Introduction The work of history and historians isn’t a simple one. Historians must find sources, analyze them, think about them and decide which stories are worth telling and which ones should be left in the background or completely ignored. This function which can easily be summed up as representation is the hardest part of the historian’s job and something which has changed a lot in the past few decades. History writing in recent years has changed its focus from a top-down perspective where the decisions of the privileged, powerful connected few are explored and analyzed to the ...

Historically, men have always dominated areas that focused on the military. It was normal for a man to be expected to protect women and children and to take part in military activities as men were considered the head of the household and drafted into the army. A man’s physique helped to support the reasoning behind such sexist decisions. Men were large and muscular. They were unlike women as they were considered to be someone that was physically strong. Women, on the other hand, were expected to take on other roles that required them to take care of the ...

The remarkable popularity of social media websites, such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and alike, create new challenges specific to the digital communication sphere. As these websites engage physical and juridical users who share various information for the purpose of informing their followers or keeping in touch with peers, the activity of sharing implies the threat of confidentiality breach. Confidentiality is a major ethical issue that organizations are vulnerable to nowadays, in the advent of social media explosion (Lachman, 2013). I chose to focus on the violation of confidentiality due to social media activity, because many organizations are not ...

These courses of actions are often laid-out by subordinate officers, which make them highly influential in the outcome of a commander’s decision. Over the years, standard procedures have been developed and observed when making decisions in the military. Of particular interest is the seven decision-making steps outlined ...

Abstract

The terrorist attacks on the United States in 2001 revealed the need for information sharing between different local, state, and federal agencies.

The fusion centers have faced constant criticism from researchers regarding their effectiveness and spending but have been successful in stopping several terrorist plans. This has saved thousands of lives and millions of dollars. However, the numerous agencies working towards the same goal has brought about ...

Introduction

It seems difficult to analyze democratic transition from the standpoint of international dimension both theoretically and practically because not so much literatures that discuss about what the external environment actually is and how it might contribute to domestic change (Cavatorta 2005).

I would agree with the man that Alexander the Great was not so much of a great leader after all. Even though he highly contributed in the spread and implementation of Greek culture and believes across its conquests, he highly underperformed as a statesman that he was. According to my perspective, Alexander the Great failed to perform satisfactorily in most of the areas that define a great leader. For a leader to be considered great, he or she should be able to leave behind a legacy, his performance as a leader should be outstanding and his missions and methods ...

Abstract

Destructive leadership, or toxic leadership, is known to have a damaging effect on subordinate members of the armed forces. In the military, toxic leaders are those who engender low levels of confidence, torment, overwork, and micromanage their units, inflict undue stress, and repeatedly violate their soldiers’ trust (Elle, 2012; Reed, 2004). Toxic leadership tends to undermine discipline, morale, and motivation and has a highly divisive effect on unit cohesion. The presence of toxic leadership within the army has recently been confirmed by a survey indicated at least 20 percent of officers and NCOs have worked for a toxic leader ( ...

Introduction

National security was not a popular concept until the 1930s and was only formally established in 1947 under the National Security Act. The Act merged the Department of War and the Department of Navy into a single unit known as the Department of Defense. The idea was to bring together the efforts of foreign affairs and the military policy, that at the time were two distinct governmental organizations into one overall concept. The homeland security idea was conceptualized following September 11, 2001, attacks on the United States (U.S Department of Homeland Security, 2010). The attacks made the nation see ...
