How To Avoid Wars In Modern Society: Prevention

Avoiding War Name: Institution: Course: Date: Avoiding War Living in a world that is constantly evolving, it is interesting to note that most of the developments that have been made across the globe are generally collaborated. Constantly, the realm of technology has lit the path to progression in the last few decades. Making some of the most dramatic advances in the world in the shortest time. Sharing and collaborating technologies as well as information is swift where parties are cordial in their relations. However, without collaboration there is conflict among the nations, as vested interests take on a rather selfish approach to the personalized gains at the expense of the neighbors. The war is an ugly phase of the human existence mostly relative to the fact that, it involves death and violence. It is interesting to note that, the article by Torie Rose Deghett titled, The War Photo No One Would Publish and the Book, The World is Flat, by Thomas Friedman all have some very insightful information about how the world is interconnected. More importantly, is the topic on how to stop the war between the different factions of the world. The article by Torie largely focuses on the photographs taken during the war and the stories that they tell of the horror of the war (DeGhett, 2014). On the other hand, the Book by Thomas on chapter twelve dwells on the interconnected nature of the world. Different parts of the world play important roles in the flat universe as the author indicates (Friedman, 2006). In the interest of the interconnected nature of the various factions of the world, it is easy to see why wars only work to dismantle the subtle bridges and relationships that exist between countries and the resources that are available between the partners across the globe. The world trade today is an integrated mesh of activities where each of the country economy relies on the other parties in the group. It is common for countries to send their diplomatic envoys to other countries to make sure that they interests are looked into. This is relative to the fact that governments understand the importance of healthy relationships that they maintain with other countries. It is clear that there are competing interests and this would explain the envoys. Still, at the base of the interest is the recognition of the relationships that exists between countries for there to be healthy trade activities across the party borders. As Thomas indicates, ‘The real subject of this chapter is how these classic geopolitical threats might be moderated or influenced by the new forms of collaboration fostered and demanded by the flat world-particularly supply chaining. The flattening of the world is too young for us to draw any definitive conclusions. What is certain, though, is that as the world flattens, one of the most interesting dramas to watch in international relations will be the interplay between the traditional global threats and the emergent global supply chains. The interaction between old-time threats (like China versus Taiwan) and just-in-time supply chains (like China plus Taiwan) will be a rich source of study for the field of international relations in the early twenty-first century’ (Friedman, 2006). The relations that exist between nations ar...
