It has been very successful with there forces and sanctions. but even better they have supported countries with humanitarian help. UN peacekeeping has also made a real difference in other places with recently completed or on-going operations such as Sierra Leone, Burundi, Côte d’Ivoire, Timor-Leste, Liberia, Haiti and Kosovo. By providing basic security guarantees and responding to crises, these UN operations have supported political transitions and helped buttress fragile new state institutions. They have helped countries to close the chapter of conflict and open a path to normal development, even if major peace building challenges remain.

In my opinion, both of these movements fizzled out due to their success. For example, the Civil Rights Movement fizzled out in the 1970's along with the Black Panther Party. This is due to the fact that more equality legislation was brought in. The purpose of this movement was being fulfilled, therefore were no longer needed. Similarly the issues the Women's Rights Movement fought to resolve were for the most part dealt with. There are still traces of these issues today, however it seems to not be enough for these rights movements to continue. Some of the goals are still not yet met. For example, the Women's Rights Movement was not able to conquer the issue of unequal pay. Although it's closer than what it was in the 1980's, the issue of men getting payed more for the same job is still a around. The Civil Rights Movement was not completely fulfilled either. Racism continues to this day although it's definitely not as bad. When the All-White National party came into power in 1948, then wanted to start an Apartheid. Which is a split between the Whites, and the South Africans. A few of the laws they put in place is that the Africans could no longer Marry outside their own race, Choose where they live or, travel where the liked etc. They dealt with this problem with creating the African National Congress which resisted forms of Apartheid. Finally in 1982 the United Nations condemned the Apartheid system. In India there was a dyarchy system were Indians controlled health and education, while the British controlled finance and law and order. Once again leaders try to rid of these systems (Gandhi who lead the protest of pacifism, and in 1930 India declared Independence). |
