The United Nations An Achievement Of Modern

…….ary organizations
from peace keeping missions to humanitarian aid, to economic
development. However, in a modern example of ethnic cleansing, the UN
faces new a new role as a bystander as its power is bypassed by NATO
forces. The UN, however, promises to be an organization of the future
with its origins rooted deeply in the histories of nations, both big
and small. The United Nations began as a symbol of power and peace.
Its goals remain set for peace, and consequently, it will remain to
be such a figure.

Its beginnings
were anything but humble. In 1947, following the end of the Second
World War, five major powers of the time, England, Russia, China,
France, and the United States pioneered an institution to safeguard
the peace of the world. Based on Woodrow Wilson’s Fourteen Points
peace proposal, submitted to congress January 8, 1918 (Patterson, UN,
10) a “general association of nations to guarantee political
independence and secure borders for great and small powers alike”
(Patterson, UN, 11) was needed to prevent future wars. At the Paris
Peace Conference in 1919, Wilson’s idea of peace was accepted by a
ravaged Europe and the last of his Fourteen Points, that an alliance:

the Treaty of Versailles (Patterson, UN, 12) and became the first
step in forming what is now the United Nations. However, the League,

threat, but did not follow through with such threats when major
opposition arose. For example, in the 1930s, the League of Nations
“possessed neither the will nor the means to stop them [fascist
dictators in Italy, Germany, and Japan]” (Patterson, UN, 14).
Although this organization did little to prevent the Second World War
in 1939, it did pave the way for humanitarian aid efforts to refugees
and helped to resolve a number of border disputes before the war.

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 Purposes of
the United nations are:
