SOLUTIONS

Efforts to find solutions to global conflicts often involve a range of strategies such as armament reduction, economic sanctions, and the isolation of certain countries. The establishment of neutral areas and the promotion of peace through diplomatic channels are also considered.

SOLUTIONS

LOOKING FOR SOLUTIONS (it isn't easy...)

Common aspects World dimension

Laws

There are so many doubts concerning this topic:

  • Should the executive, the judiciary and the legislature depend on a unique international organization?.
  • Is a global organization desirable?
  • Is it possible to have common rules for so many different cultures, religions and values?
  • The executive

    Government?

    Army?

    Courts
    Legislators
    Human rights
    It is not easy to state them in a common and universal way

    Social mobilization

    Whether we believe in it or not, it is growing increasingly important and necessary. Governments are becoming less and less representative of the population; their strategies to reach agreements to their advantage and the evolution of democratic political systems are distorting the real meaning of such concept. Voting is not enough, we must take part in social and political life by using more active means.

    Web 2.0
    Charity actions
    Demonstrations
    Strikes

    Education

    Schools

  • Future depends on them in the mid- and long-term, but we are not being efficient enough because of the methods used up till now.
  • Public opinion
    Mass media

  • The mass media should be "reeducated". They have unluckily become the "fourth power" and they often exert their influence as such: manipulating, deceiving, hiding facts, determining priorities, being biased, etc.
  • Responsibility

    Neutralism

    Objectivity

    Strategies to reach agreements on

    Economic sanctions
    Armament reduction
    Boycott
    Isolation of certain countries

    Neutral areas should be created

    Be careful!

  • This has often caused several problems, but it can still be a possible solution to very specific conflicts.
  • Possible actions taken by a third party

    Control
    Armaments production

    Biological warfare

    Personal, private weapons

    We can find quite an eloquent example in the USA.

    Landmines

    Cluster bombs

    We know that Spain produces and legally exports this type of bombs, while condemning their use at the same time! (economic hypocrisy)

    Nuclear weapons

    Ordinary weapons

    Armaments sale

    Allow

    Black market

    It gives "equal opportunities" to make war

    This sounds terrible but...

  • Powerful countries don't want other countries to have the same opportunities to arm themselves or make war. The don't rely on those countries to be as responsible and sensible as they consider themselves to be.
  • Forbid

    International organizations

  • They should be improved
  • They should be updated
  • They should be adapted to the new and ever changing world reality.
  • Famous prizes

  • Not as a motivation, but as a recognition. Furthermore, they spread good actions and performances internationally.
  • Príncipe de Asturias
    Nobel Prize

    Others

    Economy

    Peace

    NGOs
    UNO
    Abolish the right to veto
    All countries should belong to it

    Serious dialogue is needed

    Among all of us
    Among powerful countries
    Among the nations at war
