Enduring Territorial Conflicts: A Brief Summary

Some resources are so valuable and are becoming so rare that countries will fight over them. Examples of these resources include gas, oil and even water. Since these resources are pretty much immobile and can’t be moved it means that countries have to take complete control of the area in which these resources are located. If this area

Although the world seemed at peace in the early 1900’s but world’s powerful forces were pushing Europe towards war. These forces included militarism, alliances, imperialism and nationalism.

“If the region were not already possessed by a rival, then a state might acquire it in one of three ways, by persuading the indigenous inhabitants to submit themselves to its overlordship; by purchasing from those inhabitants the right to settle part or parts of it; by unilateral possession, on the basis of first discovery and effective occupation (M. Borch 2001)”.

The purpose of this essay is to inform on the similarities and differences between systemic and domestic causes of war. According to World Politics by Jeffry Frieden, David Lake, and Kenneth Schultz, systemic causes deal with states that are unitary actors and their interactions with one another. It can deal with a state’s position within international organizations and also their relationships with other states. In contract, domestic causes of war pertain specifically to what goes on internally and factors within a state that may lead to war. Wars that occur between two or more states due to systemic and domestic causes are referred to as interstate wars.

In a way, imperialism has a play in this situation. Wars are issued over mere plots of land, and as a result millions

Since the beginging of the human race, wars have erupted over disagreements on religion, economy, ……. etc. Land ………………… Land may be fought over for religious beliefs; may have once been a holy palce for their founders. Land may be fought over because of economic

This statement at a glance gives the reader insight into why landpower is so important to the nation’s defense. Landpower functions in concert with the whole of government; which make United States(US) policies and alliances more effective than they would be if they were employed in isolation. This paper will analyze the role of Landpower in the achievement of national strategic objectives in peace, conflict, and war, and discuss the relevant interdependencies of the domains of conflict as they relate to the application of Landpower anywhere in the world. This paper will also highlight the unique role of Landpower in a Joint, Interagency, Intergovernmental, and Multinational (JIIM) environment, as a member of

“The problem is, simply put, a dispute over real estate” (Gelvin 3). This conflict has resulted in major wars during the period of time following World War II. The 1948-1949 Arab Israeli war began when Egypt, Syria, Iraq, and Lebanon invaded Palestine. The second war that occurred, was the 1956 Suez Canal War, at the end of this war Israel agreed to withdraw from the Sinai Peninsula and the Gaza strip

While advocacy of federalism as a tool for managing ethnic conflict continues to grow with respect to a diverse set of cases, its proponents and opponents point to different cases of federal success and failure. However, supposed benefits and no-benefits of federalism have been challenged by both those who argue that federalism exacerbates or mitigates ethnic conflict. This debate about the merits and demerits of post-conflict federalism has reached a deadlock, largely as a consequence of

I have learned a many great things from participating in Nevada DECA in the last two years. It has helped gain experience and confidence in the business world, which changed my entire outlook on and attitude toward life. Before I joined Nevada DECA during my sophomore year, I never had the confidence to face challenges out of my comfort zone. Nevada DECA has helped change that fear of going out of doing what I am comfortable with, and began challenge other opportunities the world had to offer.

5) Religion is such a common factor of territorial conflict that people sometimes outright say that religion is sometimes the main cause. Religion has caused much territorial conflict from the Crusades hundreds of years ago to extreme tensions today. For example, the conflict between India and Pakistan over the Kashmir stems from the fact that the ethnic minority of the area claimed by India is Muslim, and Pakistan is a heavily Muslim-majority country. In addition, Israel uses religious reasoning in order to justify the possession of the Gaza Strip and Jerusalem from the people who were already living there.

Since the early 20th Century, Israelis and Palestinians have been fighting over the land between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea. With the assumption that Palestine is a state to facilitate discussion, this report sketches out the most significant elements of the conflict on the three levels defined by Kenneth Waltz, and applies the Realist theory of international relations (IR) to the “Two-State” solution.

Sometimes states have conflicts brought about by national interests, disagreements on natural resources, war and distribution of power thereby enacting strict measures on their

As humanity approaches further in twenty-first century, the quiddity of boundaries, borders and territory, and the geopolitical practices organized around them, in a world of turbulent financial flows and transnational dangers, is very much in question. What is the status of the state border in a world where states appear to be overwhelmed by transnational flows of capital, information and commodities? What does geopolitics mean in a world where there is no dominant territorial antagonism, where many states are failing as a consequence of ethnic wars and institutional collapse?
