The non-aligned movement came into existence with a whole basket of noble ideals. In the early days following the initial euphoria, expectations would have been high with the promise of a new beginning. Truth be told it started off well until, lately, the keeping up with the Jones syndrome set in. Mention divorce solicitors uk and the image that often jumps to mind is of a legal eagle who assists a client and can get the best from a union gone bad. But mention non-aligned and what comes to mind is an entity that has outlived its purpose.

Mind you, this was not always the case. This sorry perception in the minds of people has been brought about by member countries that have covertly encouraged the very things it purported to stand against. So while on the surface, the claims are for human rights and what have you, the inside story is far removed from reality. It must be mentioned here that never in the history of mankind has such an ideal been put into practice or worked. Every fiefdom, every region, every country has always been harassing its neighbour since the beginning of time. The methods may have become refined but this has never really changed. Of course, every country has had phases of calm when lucidity prevailed and wonderful ideals for the betterment of mankind were proclaimed. NAM seems to be one such collective, and brief, effort. All it took was one head with a different set of ideas to come to power and all such noble thoughts would be swept aside.

No country wants to be left behind when peaceful existence implies weakness and possibility of invasion from a neighbour. So, over a period of time, it is forced to arm itself to the teeth, with power in the hands of a trusted few. It starts off as a necessity, a precaution against a rainy day but eventually, the one-upmanship takes on a different and profitable hue. It pays to have instability, fear, segregation and aggression around. NAM seems to have fallen into such a trap.

Of late Syria has been in the limelight for all the wrong reasons. The protests of the people and the subsequent violent retributions have left many dead. The official version of the toll may be vastly different from the unofficial one but the fact remains that lives are being lost on a daily basis in a struggle common people have taken on. I recently met a friend when I went out to make a NHS complaints claim, his brother is journalist in Syria and he was asked to leave Syria as early as possible since even the news reporters are not safe anymore.

Strange as it may seem, Syria is a member of the non-aligned movement that encourages the respect of fundamental rights and the recognition of the movements for national independence among others. However, it would seem that there are two faces to this country. While on one hand, the Bandung principles that govern the Non Aligned Movement are proudly proclaimed, the voice of dissent is ruthlessly cut off. This brings into focus the very purpose of the existence of the non Aligned Movement. One would be entitled to assume that any member not adhering to the principles would be warned to get in line, failing which, be expelled. On the contrary, member countries seem to be well entrenched in the thick of things, particularly those that concentrate on their interests, with nary a care for such irrelevant things like the Non Aligned Movement.

How else can one explain the atrocities that are happening in a member state like Syria? The actual workings and machinations seem to be quite contrary to what it is supposed to, and claims, to be doing. In not taking any stringent action against Syria’s flouting of the very fundamentals, the NAM seems to have sacrificed its lofty ideas to turn a blind eye to reality. Thereby bringing an end to its credibility and the very purpose for which it was set up.

Any official or unofficial body that takes on a governing or advisory role also takes on the onus of being impartial. While the UN came in for a lot of criticism due to its alleged leanings towards more powerful nations, the same can come to pass in any other official body too. Particularly where nations are involved, the role changes drastically from that of, say, family solicitors, whose work is more or less defined and along a certain path. There is no straying from the established path.

On the other hand the role of the unofficial Non Aligned Movement is a lot more diverse. While the primary role is that of being advisory, there are a lot of other roles that come into the picture albeit subtly. This is where extreme care should be exercised to be impartial while keeping the interests of others too in mind. A broader framework should be followed at all times lest history repeats itself.

The frame work could extend from economic to social to cultural which in a way is quite comprehensive. It is not an easy task to be impartial and take a hard decision expecting it to be followed to the letter. For such a thing, the body should establish itself as one that can be depended on and trusted without having any ulterior motives in its decisions. Everything should be open to foster a sense of transparency and which in turn cultivates trust. Closer cooperation between the member countries must always be encouraged to foster a sense of belonging and participation. It is easy to become a puppet in the hands of powers that be and develop a leaning to what may not be well received by the other members. It then proves to be what it is meant to be - an august body that is impartial in its functioning.

The issue is particularly important nowadays because a disturbing trend is the fact that exactly the NA countries are the ones which do not vest serious amount of attention in the recognition of those rights. Furthermore, EU states have long promoted the idea of regulatory mechanisms that ensure the observance of such rights in each state that has agreed to enforce them. Nevertheless, it was the NA that opposed the creation of such an independent institution. ESC rights are the rights that guarantee fair competition, freedom of religion and political opinion non-enforced upon the individual and so on. And while the NA have proven strong when promoting the idea of the fundamental freedoms of a person, it has remained silent in the enforcement of ESC rights in the countries which do not want to be related to any organization.

What the NA countries can do is to respond to the ’demand of rights'by addressing certain global concerns. Despite being the states that, for example, are the main red diesel supplier to the west of the only gold producers in a certain area, still these countries need more economic policies to satisfy their peoples. Accordingly, an enactment of ESC legislation would be enough to prove that the Non Aligned can remain independent countries without the necessity of entering into international treaties - simply because they would have their own justice delivering schemes for ensuring a proper lifestyle across their borders.

In terms of financial deficit, Serbia beats Greece in current indicators. Serbia, which does not belong to the EU has maintained a steady deficit grow which is a negative development in the past 7 years. However, the country is somehow managing to show economic growth and even suffering from deficit, it maintains it in the low levels and thus ensure some sort of economic stability nowadays when the Eurozone is collapsing under the economic crisis. On the other hand, Greece, as a country belonging to the EU, is suffering from increasing deficit. Its powerlessness to cope deficit is further enhanced by the inability of the Union to maintain strong financial stability. So the general conclusion - the economy of Serbia is more likely to recover than Greece - and Serbia is a NA country.

NATO’s military budget (unofficially called budget) involves significant contributions from economies - the money of the taxpayers. However, this is difficult since maintaining the financing of such a large institution is expensive and the current state of economies around the world is not quite comfortable for such initiatives. Serbia, however, contributes nothing to the military Union. Thus the country is saving billions of dollars every year, it has its own military concerns that are based on purely national level and thus remain stable in terms of international expenses - the general conclusions is that economically, the military contributions of Serbia are far less harmful to its economy given the current state of global finance.
And even though Serbia might be impaired from legal solutions such as the road traffic accident claim form in the EU, the country is far more secure and a potentially expanding emerging market than many of the economies in Western Europe that have organized a Union.

Sometimes, it makes one wonder if the Non Aligned Movement, set up to break the yoke of imperialism is of any use today. It claims to stand for the sovereignty of countries and their ability to cope with their own internal affairs without any external influence.

However, when you consider the uninvited intervention, forcibly often, in the affairs of a country in the name of democracy, you wonder if it’s all talk and no bite. Worse, consider the possibility of it actually being a set up to pave the way for interference by curbing what needs to be done by a country and its citizens. I was looking for skins compression shorts when I came across an article that questioned the effectiveness of the distinguished body. Its funny how Google search works at times, you search for something related to body and it brings up results regarding the governing body of non aligned movement.

It makes me wonder if the Non Aligned Movement is just a silent spectator in the hands of powers that be. It seems to silently justify the acts of interference undertaken by western coalition forces. Consider Libya where the people are fighting for a democracy they feel should rightfully govern them. The Libyan forces are massacring innocent civilians on the orders of an obsessed dictator who refuses to let go of power. And the French, American and British seem to be silently condoning the attacks with their half-hearted protests.

In fact, countering terrorism with militarization has a very counterproductive effect; it actually aids what was set to be destroyed with military might as people feel compelled to join the underdog. Its ideals are then considered lofty and well worth fighting for.

Imperialism is an offshoot of the activities of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) which was part of the Havana Declaration of 1979 after the NAM itself was founded in Belgrade eighteen years earlier. The struggle against imperialism was to battle the extending authority, economic and political dominance of the powerful nations over the developing countries which were then mostly considered as Third World nations. The issue of imperialism may not be as popular as designer silver rings are among women and fashion buffs, but it’s been a debate both in the academic and political world. Media imperialism refers to imbalance and colonization of information, news and cultural flows by the Western nations. Academically and politically, the United States has been the country at the receiving end of criticisms.

This brought about a call for New World Information and Communication Order (NWICO) because countries saw media imperialism as a new form of colonialism. International deliberations lasted for years about US media imperialism and questions concerning the inequality in global information flow. NWICO supporters wanted a policy reform that will alienate this imbalance. The issue of media imperialism came with the realization that the developed nations have found a way to alter the flow of global news by imposing their views on any matter over weaker nations. This form of imperialism has so much been perfected that many people believe that the opinions flowing from the news agencies of countries such as the United States are the most balanced. Academically and politically it is widely known that such information flow represents mostly the interests of the country of origin. Media imperialism remains an on-going debate; it has not ceased to exist.

Despite the obviously false peace in the region of Serbia and Kosovo, military clashes have once again appeared in what is considered to be one of the most disputed regions in Europe. People there are hardly interested in ortak jewellery or any other kind of luxury - they are rather engaged in a fight where there is no wrongful party and where people are striving to achieve their personal freedom. The question is why Serbia, as a member of the Non-Aligned is not harsher with the people that brought down its population in the newly formed country.

The political charge occurred after thousands of young men attacked a border post held by Kosovo and thus indirectly declared their disagreement with the persistent imposition of Kosovan will over the Serbian population in the region. Thousands of Serbs cannot retreat to their motherland simply because Kosovan institutions do not allow them to cross the border with their homeland. On the other hand, the powerful but NA country Serbia maintains fragile diplomacy and seeks resolution of the problem with peaceful means.

This, no matter how much the Non-Aligned would be aiming to achieve it, will not happen without economic intervention. All non-aligned countries are present in the Kosovan territories with economic influence - some of them deliver goods, other buy products from the country. Economic intervention would thus be a way of taking home all the Serbs that remain unlawfully detained in Kosovo. Despite the proclamations of no-violence techniques by the Non-Aligned, a harsh intervention of sometimes necessary - after all, economic restrictions can hardly be described under the considerations of any sort of violence.

The Non-Aligned countries, headed by Serbia, are the body responsible for promoting the human rights and the peace process. However, I have seen little of publicity in relation to their participation in the establishment of the global peace. Definitely, the organization has the goals of promoting values that many other institutions, including NATO, seem to be ignoring. Nevertheless, I hear more about the Locum GP Jobs rather than the activities of such a high-scale organization like the NA on the news.

The problems of publicity need to be resolved. The organization needs to pursue a more confident approach in issuing statements and reports on the global web and in the news agencies in the form of press releases. Little is known about the current activities of the organization, their position on the new plans of NATO to extend the anti-missile defense system in Asia and Eastern Europe. Moreover, the organization needs to address such concerns as economic climate and the problems that international players might cause to the financial stability in the world.

The problems of publicity might be resolved by implementing new policies in relation to PR management. The countries from the formation need to have a coherent and quite more responsive team of press specialists and media experts to announce the recent developments in the organization. This would enhance the ability of the NA to influence international decisions, to promote more effectively their values among the population of their own countries and around the world. With such a strategy, the NA would be even more successful of spreading the word about the promotion of peace and the recognition of human rights.

The non-aligned countries have long been saying that they need no assistance from other institutions and organizations. However, is that a win strategy and has the time come for some of them to reconsider. An example under this review would be Serbia - an European Balkan country that could have easily been a part of the EU but for its membership and key role in the governance of the NA.

Has Serbia won from not joining any organizations? This is a question the answer of which is negative. The country is not in the focus of the news around the world and little is known about its current financial condition and stage of economic development. However, it is clear that the country’s economy is shrinking, as any other under the financial recession. The problem that they are experiencing is related to deficit and reduced abilities of the domestic economy to perform properly and in accordance with the international standards.

But this is not the only point. Serbia receives no foreign funds and has no agreements so this automatically makes it a bad investment market for people who would target the Balkans as a potential place for conducting and developing business. In the EU even the accidents at work allow a person to address the Union on proper compensation and future measures. However, in Serbia this is impossible and the only regulatory body is the institutions of the state itself. This often leads to injustice, unregulated and corrupted officials and individual disturbances around the population.

So the answer might be straightforward - that despite their strong will and desire to bring peace and recognition of the individual, the NA might have actually suffered from too many restraints on international relations.
