Question One

The role of the United States in the solutions of the planet’s problems has been great. The policies adopted by different administrations have been different. Though this is the reality on the ground, the administrations have continually changed their approaches. There are three categories that have been used by the United States as far as international relations are concerned. All these have had the aim to advance social justice, reduce conflicts and meet global needs. Though security has been the main concern, there are other concerns as well. The three categories are as follows.

Introduction

Terrorism has been a long-standing problem of globalization, with radical militant groups inflicting coercion upon civilians to push for political, social and religious goals. Arguably, however, terrorism has reached its zenith in recent times when the September 11, 2001 (9/11) attacks in the United States (US) happened. The intensity of the attacks cast the image of the US as the most powerful nation in the world into serious doubt, considering the fatal breach of security involved (Kean, 2004).

Undoubtedly, 9/11 shook the US towards creating new strategies to counter future cases of terrorism. However, there is an understanding that the ...

The National Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) was created when a treaty was signed in 1949 by all the Allies except for the Soviet Union after World War II.

One reason was to build an organization of countries that could rely on each other to work together against any threat from the Soviet Union.

1. Liberalism and Feminist theorist 

Central to the theory and practice of Liberalism is the freedom of individuals to make choices that will result to social outcomes. This particular school of thought believes that “the purpose of society is the advance of freedom, equality, and human happiness” (Auster, 2007, LA reply section). It is important to note though that when one person chooses not to respect the freedom and rights of other people, this violates the concept and therefore could not be considered under Liberalism. The various forms of liberalism: economic, social and political, adopt the central tenet, albeit in different contexts.

Liberalism, ...

Introduction

A supernova is coined by some astronomers as the brilliant destruction of a star, and rightfully so because of the highly complex activities that resulted to the final outburst of the of the celestial body. While the typical explanation of a star explosion is a change in its core or the excessive absorption of massive matter from another star, it took years of study for astronomers to finally present it that way. It is stimulating to note that the study of supernova dated back to ancient China, the oldest known record was shortlisted from thousands of supposed supernovae. The supernova SN 185 ...

Slobodan Milošević has been a president of Serbia for seven years, and during this time Serbia started a war with Bosnia and Croatia, and, as a result, was internationally isolated.

Another block was led by the United States of America and included other countries such as Great Britain and France, as well as the defeated post-fascism countries like Germany. The aim of this block was to enforce the necessary reforms in the world in ...

However with the developments taking place and the end of the Cold War and Afghanistan invasion, the need has been felt for expanding the circle of members list of NATO. This decision would have its repercussions in multiple facets and all these must be taken into account. Each of the member state has its own views and concerns with ...

Introduction

Currently, there are many international organizations in the world that address issues in all areas of the human life, including economic and political ones. The acutest problems of today, in my book, are the problem of war and peace, of disarmament and resolution of armed conflicts. Safety concern of every state has led to the creation of the military and political organizations. One of which was the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). NATO creation was a consequence of the Cold War and, therefore, all its efforts were aimed at confrontation with the Soviet Union and with other socialist countries (which ...

What the US Retrenchment means for Europe and NATO?

Recent events and occurrences point to the fact that the United States of America now graces itself as a pacific, than a European power. This can be vividly understood in the President Obama’s military strategy review of 2012. However, the need to stave off the worst economic crisis in human history is making the European Government plundering their defenses cottage. Any of the aforementioned developments, on its own, would have a profound impact on how the transatlantic alliances function. When merged, both would, most likely, put NATO into irrelevance.

International politics/relations

In his article “Russia's Latest Land Grab: How Putin Won Crimea and Lost Ukraine” Jeffrey Mankoff states that Russia interrupts political uncertainty of former socialistic countries justifying it with protection of Russian national minorities on these territories. According to the author, in this way Kremlin is able to maintain influence on post-Soviet countries. After dissolution of Soviet Union many of these countries have directed their policy on European integration not willing to play under Kremlin rules. Russia was playing a restrictive role in each case, except the Baltic countries. During 2014 Russia has probably lost the strongest political ally – ...

Nuclear weapons and safety of the world is one of much debated issues. Different people have different opinions on nuclear weapons.

The President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin cited that the ...

Establishment

Abstract America took the initiative to create the security mechanism to involve the majority of democratic countries and stabilize Europe, because the fact that the Soviet Union no longer controlled the surrounding countries increased the tensions in the region.

In a response, it created its own structure to maintain its stability in the Western Europe. Not all countries became beneficial because of the creation of NATO. Some countries found themselves on the wage of the war with ...

Introduction

NATO or the North Atlantic Treaty Organization is an agreement between participating countries to support and give assistance to other allied countries who have signed treaty to the agreement.

The American nation proclaimed neutrality while it was hard to maintain the coastal patrols, and it was costly to prosecute offenders.

- Some argue that NATO is not just a military alliance, but also a political organization. To what extent is this valid argument? NATO is perhaps one of the most continuing and complex political and military organization on the global field in the modern times. All over the six decades of existence, it has been thoroughly evaluated, studied, analyzed and commented upon, however many theorists are still determining its operations. Both these scenarios justified the establishment of NATO that could deal effectively with the Soviet threat as well as the USA’s dominance of the region. The European countries ...

Despite the success of the alliance between the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and the United States in bringing victory in the Second World War, the cooperation during wartime implied glossing over several differences between the two countries. The soviet leaders had been complaining about the coexistence between capitalism and communism following the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917 (Jones, Trevelyn, Luann, Marlene, Daryl, Jeanne, & Mary, p. 172). There are several factors that combined to result into the emergence of the Cold War between the 1940s and 1990. During the 1940s, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, also known as the ...

Michael Doyle is one of the most outstanding scholar international relations. In his famous work on liberalism and international politics, Doyle seeks to re-examine the belief that authorities or government founded on individual liberty formulate and implement foreign policies that are restraint and peaceful (Fearon 577). In efforts to give a theoretical explanation of the world politics, Doyle examines three types of liberalism, that is, liberal pacificism as attributed by Schumpeter, liberal imperialism by Machiavelli and liberal internationalism as developed by Immanuel Kant (Doyle 1152).

After 36 years of existence, the Warsaw pact ended in 1991. It was formed in response to the decision by the United States, Canada, and other European nations to rearm West Germany in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. However, by the late 1980’s the soviet and anticommunist movements in Eastern Europe began to crack the Warsaw pact (History 2014). The Warsaw pact collapse was initiated by some series of events that led to its demise finally in 1991. Poland played a role in ending the Warsaw pact. Brown (70) argues that the dwindling economic condition of the nation ...

The start of the crisis in Ukraine initially goes back to 21st of November, when Victor Yanukovich the former president of Ukraine abandoned the trade agreement with EU, to have closer ties with Moscow. Since that, the public started to protest against this decision, and the public support grew as the pro-EU and anti-government protestors were slammed by Police Special Forces called Berkut. In Kiev and just in Independence Square 300,000 people protested, and the activists seized the City Hall. The situation even got more as the anti-protest law in parliament was passed.

The main lesson of the last five decades is that the process and reconciliation in Europe based on the European security system. If it were not for NATO, France could not have a sufficient sense of their own safety to settle their differences with Germany. If there wasn’t NATO then France, and the UK more actively opposed to German reunification. Suffice it to recall the desperate attempts Thatcher and Mitterrand tighten (and thus even prevent) the reunification of Germany, to evaluate the role of NATO in the eradication of the ...

Throughout the semester, I have learned about the security, and security is one of the most important issues in the world.

When we use the internet and bank service, they always require a password, and many people have different passwords each other because of protecting personal information. Of course, it is one of the security issues, but security divided by three parts. According to the “Global Politics,” security ...

Towards the end of cold, Europe was divided into East and West, with each affiliated to Soviet Union and United States respectively. With the collapse of the Warsaw Pact in 1991, there was great enthusiasm on the part of its former members to join the Western alliance lead by NATO.
