International Non Governmental Organisations Play An Effective Role

One of the first conflicts in the film causes a bigger conflict in later years and later in the plot between the same characters. A conflict is defined as "Conflict is a fact of human life. It occurs naturally in all kinds of settings. Nations still struggle, families fracture in destructive conflicts, marriages face challenges and often fail, and the workplace is plagued with stress." in the textbook "Interpersonal Conflict" by Wilmot. Meriam-Webster defines conflict in three ways. Firstly a war, fight or battle. Secondly "competitive or opposing action of incompatibles :antagonistic state or action (as of divergent ideas, interests, or persons)" or "mental struggle resulting from incompatible or opposing needs, drives, wishes, or external or internal demands". Lastly "the opposition of persons or forces that gives rise to the

The conflict theory is not only prominent, but it is also different in its approach in explaining

Conflict, according to Wilmot & Hocker (2011), is defined as an expressed struggle between at least two interdependent parties who perceive incompatible goals, scarce resources, and interference from others in achieving their goals.

In an attempt to explain the process of conflict and its concepts, this paper will review the movie “Temptation.” In spirit, this paper will identify three major conflicts within the movie, as it relates to conflict resolution. In order to grasp a true concept and analyse this movie, the term conflict may be defined as “an expressed struggle between at least two interdependent parties who perceive incompatible goals, scarce resources, and interference from others in achieving their goals” (Wilmot & Hocker, 2011, p11).

All conflict has started with differences between people and/or countries, it could have been different ideology, perspective or just desire that might have intervened with someone else's and it may have caused a dispute. Since the beginning of all human civilization, conflicts occurred due to differences where one individual does not agree with the other. Many conflicts led to war which would either help the countries or empires grow or bring them to their own demise. Many societies and countries became very powerful with allies that supported them in order to overcome enemies which said that many of their conflicts originated from the bad or unhealthy relationships that many people or even countries may have had at the time. There were countries, empires, and societies together that had strong international relations that led them to their shared goals and helping them overcome any terrible relationships that might have led to conflict or war between them. In Argo, Antonio Mendez proves international relations can either create or resolve worldwide conflict.

Brown etal., 1993 as described in Calebdumisa, 2007 defined disputes as a conflict which manifest itself in distinct and justifiable issues that can be resolve by means of adjudication, mediation and arbitration. In a simplest word, conflict is doubt or questioning, opposition, incompatible behavior, controversy or antagonistic interaction and disputes is one of the range of events considered

The United Nations successfully ensure guaranteed safety through peacekeeping operations. In four continents, the UN implements 16 ongoing missions and inserts 100 troops and personals. (United Nations Foundation, n.d.) Although the peacekeeping missions do not perfectly accomplish their goals, they are making a constructive progress as praised in 2000 report. (Nossel, 2005) Thanks to their activity, a plenty of international organizations, NGOs and NPOs can intervene problematic areas much easier than without the UN.One of the successful operations taken place in Liberia embodies the UN’s capability to conduct peacekeeping activity.Due to an exertion of UNMIL, cooperative institutions were able to carry out their actions such as restoration of fundamental security throughout Liberia; UNMIL contributed to reduction of weapon among combats.

The first focus will be on the appearance of NGO's and their efforts both during and after conflicts. This will be followed by the difficulties that such organizations encounter in their efforts to pursue transitional justice. Lastly, the contributions of NGO's and civil society organizations to post-conflict societies still dealing with human rights violations will be analyzed. A better understanding of how these organizations can influence struggling transitional societies and the importance of their ability to bring pressure to state governments to bring about effective change is an important step towards improving post conflict

Massive destruction and loss of life in the deadliest conflict of the humankind, the World War II raised the need for enhanced international alliances that would contain and supervise nation state both from outside and inside, from above and below. The second half of the twentieth century therefore was marked not only by the establishment of the major intergovernmental bodies such as the United Nations and European Union, but also by the proliferation of the international non-governmental organizations that connected civil societies across borders. Globalization added intensity and pace to the process by promoting political, cultural and economic interconnectedness and transporting issues faced by local NGOs on a global level.

The intelligence community (IC) views conflict as the existence of incompatible goals or priorities between two or more actors. The IC analyzes conflicts in which groups or organizations of people cause disruption in a state, region, or throughout the world, both in nonlethal conflicts and armed conflicts. While conflict itself is as old as civilization, the methods for which it is dealt with, or conflict management, change as the causes themselves change. It is of vital importance to determine what the root causes of a conflict are in order for the resolution to be one which ensures the issue does not resurface. Today’s world is constantly evolving and changes seem to occur quickly enough that as conflicts arise, the IC is continually looking for new ways to deal with the “shifting landscape of conflict management.”

According to the United Nations, “UN Peacekeeping helps countries torn by conflict create conditions for lasting peace” (United Nations ). Over the years, the United Nations has indeed laid the tools to promote peace and security in some of the world’s most vulnerable areas. Therefore, the United Nations is proud to have “built an impressive record of peacekeeping achievements over more than 60 years of our (their) existence, including winning the Nobel Peace Prize” (United Nations ).

There are different interpretations of what might be a threat to international peace and security and when is the case for a country to self-defence. However, there are issues that are unanimously considered as threats by the Security Council and other UN members. These are the incidents that may result to a war including disputes over the geographical possession of a territory and resources (i.e. Kashmir dispute) and ethnicity or ideological conflicts (Balkan). War may also be fuelled by the economical interests of a group or a country as it was the case with rebels funded by conflict diamond in Angola and Sierra Leone.

Throughout history, different nations have cooperated with each other for a number of reasons. From treaties to sanctions, nations have worked together on important aspects of politics, such as war and trade. However, it was not until relatively recently, in the last hundred years, that nations have formed complex global organizations to regulate and discuss foreign affairs. International Organizations are formed, in theory, to provide mutual benefit to all countries involved. These organizations have had great success working toward their goals, but are not without their flaws. Some organizations have not been able to fulfill their purpose due for a variety of reasons. The League of Nations was intended to prevent global warfare, but lacked the clout to get its member states to obey its resolutions. Nonetheless, successful international organizations can be very effective at helping to create and enforce beneficial regulations. This benefit can come in many different forms. Organizations like the North Atlantic Treaty Organization , or NATO, deal mainly in military support, while the United Nations, or UN, focuses on peacekeeping, as well as human rights and humanitarian aid. Whatever the organization works to improve, be it national security, economy, or quality of life, global organizations throughout the twentieth century moved forward with their goals to assist member countries and promote humanitarianism.

the first united nations’ achievement, that make the largest claim on the organization’s budget is, peacekeeping. (shapiro and Lampert, n.d., p. 195)This organization is one of the powerful in the UN that has helped in many cases to turn the situation from conflict to peace . (“What is peacekeeping? United Nations Peacekeeping,” n.d.).During its sixty years the UN lunched more than fifteen peacekeeping missions, many of which are still existence. (shapiro and Lampert, n.d., p. 196) . according to MILJANOVIC, M. and LAPAS, D.,’’ The nature of armed conflicts has changed significantly since the establishment of the UN, as well as the political context in which the Charter was created. Between 75 and 80% of all the armed conflicts after the WWII fall into the category of non-international conflicts and about 80% of the total casualties result from such strife’’. Moreover, the United Nations’ law must be publicly promulgated and be consistent with the stander of international human rights. (“What is peacekeeping? United Nations Peacekeeping,” n.d.)

Collective security has become more of a theory than an actual practice for the UN. By definition, the UN needs to identify the aggressor in order to proceed. Unfortunately, in most international disputes, it is hard to determine which state is the aggressor. It becomes even more difficult finding the aggressor when trying restore peace in an intrastate conflict (Nye & Welch, 2011, p. 192).
