The League Of Nations And The United Nations

The UN has an agreement with all other nation states to not get in conflict with each other and to settle differences in meetings to prevent another world war. It also makes them stronger as a

• United Nations: After World War II ended, nations joined in forming the United Nations. The organization’s purpose includes peacekeeping, fighting hunger and disease and promoting education.

The United Nations was to be a place where there was peace between the countries, a place where they can dispute their differences, a place to support each other and benefit from the allies a country made by being in the United Nations. It was “designed to make possible lasting freedom and independence for all its members” (Document B). Not long after it was founded, it started falling apart. People had different idea of how it should have been ran but the people who got their way was the bigger and stronger countries. They came to an agreement that the bigger countries—the United States, Soviet Union, Great Britain, France, and China—would have veto power and the other countries that were a part of it would take smaller roles in the decisions

The United Nations is a vessel to keep the peace, they work to prevent conflicts, step in and help parties in conflict to make peace; peacekeeping; and creating the conditions to allow peace. The UN security council has the primary responsibility for the aforementioned. They are the division of the UN that is responsible for maintaining international peace and security. There are fifteen members and each member has one vote, and under the charter, all Member States are obligated to comply with the council’s decisions (The United Nations, n.d.). The United Nations along with the security council was formed in 1945, leaders of 50 nations met in San Francisco with representatives of non-government organizations. It took place at the end of the second world war to prevent that type of widespread destruction, they formed the United Nations.

By the end of the first world war, the international community founded the League of Nations, the first international security organization with the primary goal of maintaining world peace. The first world war saw drastic increases in mankind 's capacity to kill other human beings and cause insurmountable harm to human society and culture. The human condition was drastically different. With a new world war on the horizon, the international community had decided to band together to form a way in which it could help exercise the correct legal disposition and formality to positively influence the world. An international body was crucial after the first world war in order to maintain peace and order as the world picked up the pieces from their injustices. This was also true after the Second world war where the world saw, again, how the cruelties of humanity had to be prevented in order for the international body to prevent the forming of higher casualty rates and human suffering.

The goal of the United Nations, when formed was to “maintain international peace and security and commit to economic and social development. (Fomerand, Jacques)” As one

While war was being waged, peace was being structured with the President personally directing the architecture of plans for the postwar world. (Heuvel). During World War 2 Roosevelt was pushing for the United Nations to be created to try and keep the world stable after the war. today the united nations is a huge part of politicas and help keep the world safe and a peace. After the collapse of the league of nations the world needed a unifying force to stop another major conflict like World War 2 from happening again. Roosevelt pushed and pushed for the creation of the United Nations. Finally on October 24, 1945 the United Nations was founded. Even though Roosevelt was not around to see the united nations come into existence he still played a huge part in its creation. originally the united nations had 51 participating nations in it. today the united nations has almost four times that number with a massive one hundred and ninety three participating nations making it the most powerful entity in history. the united nations has helped prevent wars from breaking out in various parts in the world and when incidents to arise the un is able to act in the manner it sees best fit to end the conflict before it escalates into a huge uncontrollable conflict. The United Nations played a necessary role in the reconstruction of europe after World War 2. as huge nations

In retrospect, the world wars influenced the formation of many international organizations mainly to act as mitigation measures to the aftermath and to prevent the occurrence of related experiences in the future. Most notably, the economies were significantly affected and lives lost unnecessarily while at the extremes the powerful nations took control of the weak hence the need for a control. To be specific, the countries under the umbrella of United Nations have continued to enjoy much prestige as compared to others since almost of the challenges they face are responded to on a wider dimension. Support is given in times of need and the international organizations have been at the forefront

The UN or United Nations was founded in 1945 to try to help other countries remain peaceful and content with one another. It replaced the “League of Nations”.

In 1914 World War I devastated the world . All of the world superpowers were combative it was supposed to be the “ war to end all wars”. After Germany was conquered the side that won known as the allied powers came together to create the league of nations the first international organization with a main goal of world peace. In order to achieve world peace they agreed to avoid war at all cost, creat open and respectable relations between nations and establish international law and strictly honor treaties. Fifty-eight countries joined the league of nations at its peak but, unfortunately failed to prevent some of its members ( Germany, Italy, and Japan) from trying to take over the world. When France and Britain confronted Germany, Italy and Japan they and other countries decided to leave the

The United Nations, like the League of Nations, was created to support peace and human rights. Also it’s establishment promoted peacekeeping and world wide stability. Although the creation of the U.N. was major, the Cold War between America and Russia tore relations with the two countries apart

“ Here is a task truly of, by and for the world, one that should rally nations. The nature of this task however, must be clearly understood; only then can suitable means for accomplishing it be formulated, only then can the role that the United Nations could and should play be appreciated” ( Wilcox/Haviland, 29). There are many international organizations that have been talked about throughout this semester. One of the most important ones is The United Nations. The United Nations was established October 24, 1945, and has since then been impacting the country. The United Nations main purpose according to the lecture notes is “ to provide a global additional structure through which states can sometimes settle conflicts with less reliance on the use of force , for whole purpose of the United Nations is to provide the globe a forum by which countries may settle disputes through this forum peacefully as opposed to relying on a force which has been the case historically” ( Kopalyan, Module 8). Thus meaning The United Nations was set up to handle problems peacefully rather than going to war to try and solve problems. “Powerful economic as well as political forces are at work to bring about a growing integration of the world community, and the United Nations and its related agencies are uniquely fitted to assist in the task” (Wilcox/Haviland,45). This was some of the reason that the United Nations was created.

Following the second of the World Wars, the League of Nations was replaced by the modern United Nations. This organization's aims were similar to their predecessor's, to maintain harmony through settling border disputes and to offer humanitarian aid wherever necessary, but the UN's charter states further that tolerance and equality is necessary in peace:

"The League of Nations was doomed To failure from the start" Adam Jenner Many may believe that the League of Nations was doomed to failure as soon as the doors of their Geneva headquarters were opened; many may say that it was built on unstable foundations; that the very idea of it was a grave misjudgment by the powers that were. Indeed it is true that the League of Nations, when it was set up was marred with many fundamental flaws. The League of Nations was formed after the end of the First World War. It was an idea that President Wilson introduced as an international police force to maintain peace and to ensure the devastating atrocities like the First World War ever happening again. The principle mission of the League of Nations was to maintain World Peace. Their failure as the international peacekeeping organization to maintain world peace brought the outbreak of Second World War. Their failure in policing and preventing peace in settling disputes throughout Europe, erupted into the most devastating war ever. Through my analysis of the failures of the League of Nations to maintain world peace, my arguments will demonstrate the understandings of the reasons and events that created the most devastating environment for the Second World War.

First, the Theory of UN Collective Security briefly summarizes why the UN was established after WWII and how it has served the global community as a method to avoid war and conflict through collective security. Collective security is introduced as a principle that allows nation-states to be interconnected in a way that no only prevents war and conflict, but also provides methods that can be
