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.

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.
