Shirin Ebadi Chapter 2: Peace and Peacemakers Peace is a process which never ends; it is the result of innumerable decisions made by many persons in many lands. It is an attitude, a way of life, a way of solving problems and of resolving conflicts. It cannot be forced on the smallest nation, nor can it be imposed by the largest. It can neither ignore our differences nor overlook our common interests. It requires us to work and live together. - Oscar Arias Objectives 1. Students will be able to define the concept and dimensions of peace.

Samarkand has been the home of many great scholars and thinkers of the East: Rudaki, Navoi, Jami, Ulughbek and others. It has a rich and turbulent past and has witnessed many tragic and glorious events. It was the capital of Tamerlane's vast empire. It stood in the heart of the crossroads of the Great Silk Road.
Permanent Court Arbitration Introduction To The Basic Documents international bureau, Administrative Council and Members of the Court The peace Palace also provides accommodation to the international Court of Justice http://www.pca-cpa.org/ENGLISH/BD/intro.htm
Extractions: The Basic Documents of the Permanent Court of Arbitration (PCA) are presented here in a single volume: its conventions, procedural rules, model clauses and other important documents. It is hoped that this compilation will be of interest and use to the international community. The 'Decade of International Law,' proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in 1989, has proven to be a decade of intensive revitalization for the PCA, and the fruits of this revitalization constitute the bulk of this volume of basic documents. Now, on the eve of the PCA's centennial, its two constitutive Conventions are accompanied by no fewer than six sets of optional procedural rules for international dispute resolution, all adopted in the period from 1992-1997. Establishment of the Permanent Court of Arbitration The PCA was established by the Convention for the Pacific Settlement of International Disputes, concluded at The Hague in 1899 during the first Hague Peace Conference. The Conference was convened at the initiative of Tsar Nicholas II of Russia 'with the object of seeking the most effective means of ensuring to all peoples the benefits of a real and lasting peace, and above all, of limiting the progressive development of existing armaments.' The most important achievement of this Conference was the establishment of the PCA: the first global mechanism for the settlement of inter-State disputes. The 1899 Convention, which provided the legal basis for the PCA, was revised at the second Hague Peace Conference in 1907.

In 1888 Cremer and Passy helped to establish the Interparliamentary Union, at which political representatives from Europe and America met to discuss ideas, problems, and legislation leading to peace. The Union still exists. The Boer War in South Africa was strongly opposed by KEIR HARDIE and the Independent Labour Party. KEIR HARDIE (1856-1915) was a British labour leader, first to represent working men in Parliament as an Independent (1892) and first to lead the Labour Party in the House of Commons (1906). The Independent Labour Party, of which he was a founder, incorporated pacifist principles in its policy. A dedicated socialist, Hardie was also an outspoken pacifist. He worked hard to persuade workers world-wide to strike rather than go to war. An International Museum of War and Peace was opened in Lucerne, Switzerland.

Peace Boat participants were first taken to the site where train cars traveling between Colombo and Galle were swept off the tracks by the tsunami and displaced miles from each other, killing 1,600. The train cars are now displayed together as a memorial to the victims of the tsunami. Here, too, a village of new homes was rebuilt inland while the shells of former homes along the beach lay untouched. Since the tsunami, the government has not allowed the reconstruction of houses within 100 meters from the coast unless a building permit was granted before the tsunami. There is suspicion among the local population that the beaches where their homes once stood will soon be peppered with hotels. There are 80 households in Kahawe, many still bearing festival decorations
The Hague Appeal For Peace OC11.1 of the permanent Court of Arbitration, predecessor to today s international the international peace bureau (IPB), international Physicians for the http://www.onecountry.org/e111/e11104as.htm
Extractions: The Hague Appeal for Peace, Conference Draft Volume 11, Issue 1 / April-June 1999 THE HAGUE - In terms of their origins, the reversal between the 1899 Hague Peace Conference and one held this year is quite dramatic. A hundred years ago, the First Hague Peace Conference was organized by governments. Convened by Russia and the Netherlands, it drew government representatives from 26 nations and resulted in the establishment of the Permanent Court of Arbitration, predecessor to today's International Court of Justice. The 1999 Hague Appeal for Peace - which drew at least 8,000 people from some 100 countries representing more than 700 organizations - was convened not by governments but by organizations of civil society. Governments, although they had talked extensively about holding a major peace conference in the Hague this year, disagreed over its scope and settled for a small-scale, two-day commemoration of the 1899 event. "This shift in the initiative is most significant," said Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina of Bangladesh, in a closing address to the Appeal, which ran 11-15 May 1999. "Once the initiative for peace is taken over by civil society, peace cannot be far away. This should happen all over the world."
James Paul NGOs And The Security Council The defects of the council and its permanent members stood uniquely Oxfam, Amnesty international, the international peace bureau, the international http://www.globalpolicy.org/security/ngowkgrp/nov96rpt.htm
Extractions: A debate is raging at the United Nations about the role of the Security Council - how to make it more effective, just and accountable. Most member states want to reform the council and democratize it, but the five Permanent Members - the United States, Britain, France, Russia and China - want to keep the privileges they gave themselves more than fifty years ago. Though the Security Council is the UN's most powerful body, it works mostly behind closed doors and with little accountability to the organization's general membership or to the larger public. When its private "consultations" adjourn, other ambassadors sometimes wait outside to solicit information on the council's secrets from their departing colleagues. Amb. Paolo Fulci, council president in December, likened the council to the secret conclave of cardinals in Rome, electing a Pope - "except that there is no beautiful ceiling by Michelangelo to inspire us," he quipped. Amb. Michael Powles of New Zealand calls the council's procedures "simply outrageous." NGOs are kept even more completely in the dark than member states. But NGOs are increasingly entering the debate and claiming a role. In the past three years, NGOs have recognized the council's growing importance to their work in such fields as humanitarian relief, human rights, development and disarmament.

The purpose of this conference room paper, prepared by the Bureau of the Open-ended Working Group, is to produce a distillation of discussions held during the two substantive sessions of the Working Group in 1997, recognizing that a comprehensive package needs to be formulated to begin negotiations to achieve general agreement on all aspects of the reform of the Security Council. The first part of this paper deals with the expansion and composition of the Council and the second part with the working methods of the Council, the transparency of its work as well as its decision-making process.
