What was it about the United Nations that made it a success when the League of Nations failed so miserably

History

wariber [46]3 years ago

It “succeeds” (this term used liberally) because the US is involved.

In the late 1910’s Wilson put all his war chips on forming the League of Nations while at Versailles, but never thought about the US not being involved. Once the League was formed and the US didn't get involved, the other countries really didn't have enough power to keep everyone in line. For example, when Japan was reprimanded for its actions in the Pacific pre-WII, they just left the LN and no one could stop them or penalize them. Not only that, but the League of Nations designer, President Wilson, wasn't actually a participant so no one was sure what they were doing.

However, with the US involvement in the UN, we are a major military and financial power in the world. As a member of the Security Council and a world superpower, we can initiate a world of hurt on anyone who doesn't follow the rules or at least get others to work it out. Again, this leads to the fact that the UN is not especially successful, but it is more successful then the LN. Any country can, and has, just go “pfft, you’all are losers, Im doing what I want.” They might get slapped with embargoes, surcharges, or in extreme cases invasions, but ultimately the UN can't stop them.

Facism and nazism in Europe during the 1920s and 1930s may best be characterized as
enot [183]
Facism and Nazism developed out of a general crisis of the European political system connected with the rise of the mass participation state from the late nineteenth century to the end of World War I. The mass participation state was marked by five features: an unprecedented expansion of the number of voters brought on by universal manhood suffrage and in some cases by the extension of the vote to women; the development of mass communications; a high degree of mass mobilization, initially by revolutionary socialist parties; new economic and social demands put forward by democratic and revolutionary organizations; and fragmented, poorly organized middle-class political party structures, largely legacies of the nineteenth-century restricted franchise. Fascism was motivated by deep-seated fears of social and political disintegration and of political revolution on the part of both ruling elites and large sectors of the middle and lower-middle classes. These classes had little to gain from a socialist revolution. Fascist and Nazi movements appeared throughout Europe during the period between World Wars I and II, but only in Italy and Germany did they come to power and develop into regimes.
