Abstract
The paper discusses the NLN's four goals that it uses as its driving force to move the profession of nursing toward an end to the nursing shortage and toward the enhancement of patient care (Bolen and Hall, 2007). The paper explains that Goal 1 is to "enhance the NLN's national and international impact as the recognized leader in nursing education" (About the NLN, 2007). The paper discusses how Goal 2 is to "build a diverse, sustainable, member-led organization with the capacity to deliver our mission effectively, efficiently, and in accordance with our values" (About the NLN, 2007) and Goal 3 is to "be the voice of nurse educators and champion their interests in political, academic, and professional arenas" (About the NLN, 2007). Finally, Goal 4 is to "promote evidence-based nursing education and the scholarship of teaching" (About the NLN, 2007). The paper shows how each goal is centered in diversifying the educational preparation of future nurses (About the NLN, 2007; Gossett and Weinman, 2007).
From the Paper

From the Paper
"Following the end of the "War to End All Wars," an international forum that was capable of addressing the inevitable political and economic differences that will always take place between nations certainly seemed like a good idea but many modern observers may not realize the enormous controversy that resulted from this seemingly benign proposal. To this end, this paper examines the reasons the United States decided not to enter into the League of Nations while their British counterparts did join. This paper explains that the decision of the U.S. to stay out of the League was largely a political one based on the composition of the U.S. government and the adversarial nature of its political parties. In the U.S. the major legislative making body of the U.S. Congress did not have the same political affiliations or agenda as the president and even many of his supporters, while in Britain, the Prime Minister as the head of the Majority party in Parliament enjoyed more support for the United Kingdom's membership in the League. In support of this argument, this paper examines the peer-reviewed and scholarly literature concerning the respective positions that emerged on both sides of the Atlantic concerning the reasons in support and those opposed to U.S. and British membership in the League of Nations, followed by a summary of the research and important findings in the conclusion."

Claude stated that 'One World' is in some respects an idea land an aspiration born of modern interpretations of ancient moral thoughts and of rational estimates of the requirements for human survival.

From the Paper
"The history of the League of Nations, although being a legitimate field of study has been subject to very little revisionist literature. Even Boemeke, Feldman and Glaser offer little reassessment, regardless of the title of their work. Furthermore as Macmillan outlines "Only a handful of eccentric historians still bother to study the League of Nations" . Given this it is difficult to interpret and evaluate different schools of thought on this issue and the relative bias that such views would provide."
"During the research for this report two sources proved to be extremely useful. These were Leroy Bennett's International Organisations and Alan Sharp's The Versailles Settlement. Bennett's work focuses on the actual logistical processes involved in the League of Nations and outlines in eloquent detail the roles and responsibilities of the various organs of the League. Armstrong's From Versailles to Maastricht also achieves this."

Abstract
This paper explains that, although the U. S. failed to support the League of Nations, America supported the United Nations because the supreme national interest of America was to obtain a world atmosphere in which the United States could grow its inner social values devoid of undue commotion or danger from the outside. The author points out that collective action via the United Nations instead of unilateral action was considered politically viable on key political issues. The paper concludes that the League of Nations and the United Nations disappointed hopes the following the two world wars because, in no way, can they be an autonomous political power; at best, the U.N. is a mirror image of the opposing interest of autonomous states.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"In the United States of America the major disagreement on both the groundwork venture and the refined Covenant of the League of Nations had been on the base that the League would function as an intrusion with the sovereignty of America and with the Monroe principle, that it concerned desertion of the traditional American policy, which had not been in favor of entrapped coalitions, and that the government did not have the power, within its Constitution, to insert such an agreement . Independence has revealed to be just so much freedom of action on the behalf of countries as is coherent with their responsibility, within international law and principles, to authorize the application of uniform independence or freedom of action by their sister countries. The League agreement had assured all States in their application of this sovereignty free from coercion by other Countries, and he who desires more is actually in search of the authorization thoughtlessly to ignore these commitments -- to refuse, for instance, the fair rulings of a properly established tribunal -- which is the German perception of independence."

From the Paper
"When the horrible fighting of World War I finally ended in November, 1918, the entire civilized world, in catching its collective breath, soon realized that not only the war that had just concluded, but indeed all war, was a revolting part of the human experience that was begging to be eradicated once and for all. It was during this time that the first steps were taken toward a unified group of member nations, across the globe that would together form what would come to be called The League of Nations. Lasting until 1945 and then morphing into the modern day United Nations, the League was an experiment in world government that, as this research will discuss, is imitated and cited to this day as an attempt to attain world peace. Additionally, this research will take a deeper look into the origins of The League of Nations, its achievements and controversies."

Abstract
This paper discusses the failure of the League of Nations. The paper contends that the League failed because the major powers of the world would not support it. The paper goes further to explain that the governments of the major powers not only turned their backs and stopped listening to the League; they rejected it from the outset. The paper states that the failure of the League to accomplish their ultimate goal -the prevention of war- signalled its demise. The paper defines the League as an international experiment that was built with the best of intentions but only lasted until hostilities broke out across Europe a meagre 20 years later.

From the Paper
"Globalization throughout the world in the last century has necessitated the creation of an international governing body. The present day's United Nations and its predecessor, The League of Nations, have fulfilled that role since the end of the First World War. Before the Great War, World War I, there was no international body and no way to resolve conflicts that led to war. The destruction of the Great War had ravaged the entire world and showed the leaders of every nation that war was not helpful to their countries, even if they were victorious. These leaders desired to form an assembly of nations that could represent the world as a whole and assure the prevention of war. Woodrow Wilson, the President of the United States in 1919, was the biggest supporter of the idea of a League of Nations and he thought that the world's problems could be resolved peacefully in a diplomatic way.

Abstract
The League of Nations, which lasted from 1920 to 1946, was born out American outrage over the idea that Americans were sacrificing increasing numbers of men towards making the world safe for democracy while Europeans were concerned with potential war booty. This paper traces the beginnings of the League with Woodrow Wilson's "Fourteen Points", his intentional exclusion of Russia and Germany from the League and the part the League played in causing the Second World War.
From the Paper
"Americans distrusted foreign alliances after the revelation of the secret treaties and subsequent revelations that most of the horror stories of German atrocities that encouraging America's entry into the war had been fabricated in London. (Brinkley, p. 358.) Whether or not America's participation in the League of Nations could have prevented World War II is a matter of speculation, but Wilson predicted the possibility as he fruitlessly campaigned for his cause. The complex issues leading to World War II were based in the harsh terms of the Treaty of Versailles that included reparations of $32 billion. The forces in Germany that had pursued policies of world domination before 1914 remained powerful and expectant; the German right denied there had been any Allied victory."

Abstract
This paper explains that the history of the League of Women Voters begins with the very inception of the Women's Movement and the fight for liberation in the United States. Carrie Chapman Catt founded the League of Women Voters in 1920 during the Chicago convention of the National American Woman Suffrage Association. The author points out that a central characteristic of the League is its inclusive attitude and its non-partisan nature, which provides an unbiased platform for debate and decision making. The paper relates that, since its inception, the League of Women Voters, which is organized at the grassroots level, has dealt with numerous issues covering a wide range of social, political issues, environmental and conservation issues.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Not only was the League of Women Voters constituted to continue the "mighty experiment" in women's rights and continue the work that had lead to the female vote; but it was also to "help 20 million women carry out their new responsibilities as voters." An important reason for the creation of the League was that Catt and many other women in the suffrage movement realized winning suffrage was only the beginning of the struggle towards full rights and privileges for women within society. They also realized that there was a large amount of education of women voters needed if the full liberation of women was to be achieved."

Abstract
This paper explains that the movement for Irish independence began in 1869 with the formation of the Irish National Land League, which sought to have the native Celtic, Irish-Catholic peasantry own the land they worked rather than to be subject to English and Anglo-Irish landowners. The author describes the ways that the awesome influence of the peaceful Irish National Land League sparked two and half decades of radical reforms, which the Irish had tried to achieve through violent rebellion and the guerrilla tactics of secret societies such as The Ribbonmen. The paper concludes that the genius of the founders of the Land League was that once the Irish owned the land in their native country, they could inevitably achieve Home Rule, which led to their independence.
From the Paper
"Wyndham Land Act 1903 and Birell's Land Act of 1909 further continue the process of redistributing land from landlords to Irish farmers. Both bills provided incentives for landlords to sell their land to Irish Catholics and provided loans to the farmers buying the land. The English concessions were in large part a coercive measure to quell the growing number of voices, even from their own leaders, in support of Irish Home Rule. Yet with each new reform the Irish stepped ever closer to their goal of autonomy and eventually, independence."
