A month after the Montreal Olympics ended the five Olympic rings have become the high walls of five separate stadiums, labelled, America, Pacific, Africa, China and Europe. The cartoon means that whether political disputes would destroy the internationalism of the Games.

My reason for using this picture is that the U.S.

reaction to events in Guatemala needs to be

measured both in its own terms and in terms of what

was actually happening in Guatemala. Guatemala

suffered more than 36 years of internal conflict, which

formally ended with the signing of the Peace Accords

at the end of 1996. The war is over, 200,000

paramilitary troops have been disbanded, nearly

3,000 guerrillas have been demobilized and resettled

and are now being integrated into the political and

economic life of the country.

The New Internationalism project works primarily on Middle East and United Nations issues. In the Middle East, the key focus areas are the U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the Israeli occupation of Palestine. In both arenas the project focuses on education and activism aiming to change the failed and failing U.S. policies, and retooling those policies to meet the goals of peace with justice.

International Polar Years commenced in 1882-3, as the inspiration of Austrian explorer and naval officer Lieutenant Karl Weyprecht, a scientist and co-leader of the Austro-Hungarian Polar Expedition of 1872-74. They act as a means of bringing together scientists from around the world in a concentrated effort to further studies of the Arctic and Antarctic regions.

Predictably the global financial crisis has led to an outbreak of social and industrial unrest in recession-ravaged Britain. Not surprisingly, as unemployment rises rapidly, those in work fear for their jobs and those of their families (the number of people claiming unemployment benefit increased by 78,000 in December).

The University of Missouri is the American home for students from around the world. And nowhere is this more evident than in our EdTech program. Our current students and recent graduates were drawn to MU because of our commitment to building a global learning community enabled by technology.

This picture is a red background and at shaded people and it has to do with internationalism because everyone is this same. All the people in the picture look that same black and it shows no one is different and we should all work together.

The plane collision is the first major foreign policy test of the newly established Bush administration. The new foreign policy team handled the situation well, they tried to defuse the issue by expressing regret at the loss of the Chinese fighter and its pilot, but at the same time wasn’t going to apologize. They demanded further concessions from the US. The Chinese tried to blame to the United States to divert attention from the fact that China itself has significantly increased military tension in the area. It has positioned some 300 missiles on the coast opposite Taiwan, growing at a rate of 50 per year. Internationalism it apart of this because two countries are not compromising.

George Orwell wrote, “All nationalists have the power of not seeing resemblances between similar sets of facts.” it relates to this picture because not all countries agree on the same thing but there ideas are similar this has to do with internationalism and nationalism because everyone in there country want to serve there country, we all think alike just in a different way.

Recognizing the urgency of the threat posed by climate change, developing countries agreed at recent UN climate change negotiations in Bali to complement developed-country mitigation targets with nationally appropriate mitigation actions of their own.
